Octavian and Antony composed their differences on a small, depressed islet in the river Lavinius, near the city of Mutina. Each had five legions of soldiers whom they stationed opposite each other, after which each proceeded with 300 men to the bridges over the river. Lepidus by himself went before them, searched the island, and waved his military cloak as a signal to them to come. Then each left his three hundred in charge of friends on the bridges and advanced to the middle of the island in plain sight, and there the three sat together in council, Octavian in the centre because he was consul. They were in conference from morning till night for two days, and came to these decisions:
that Octavian should resign the consulship and that Ventidius should take it for the remainder of the year; that a new magistracy for quieting the civil dissensions should be created by law, which Lepidus, Antony, and Octavian should hold for five years with consular power (for this name seemed preferable to that of dictator, perhaps because of Antony's decree abolishing the dictatorship); that these three should at once designate the yearly magistrates of the city for the five years; that a distribution of the provinces should be made, giving to Antony the whole of Gaul except the part bordering the Pyrenees Mountains, which was called Old Gaul; this, together with Spain, was assigned to Lepidus;
・民間の紛争処理に当たる司令官の職を新たに法律によって設置し、Lepidus、Antony、Octavianがそれぞれ5年間執政官の権力を持つこと。（おそらくAntonyの布告によって専制君主制が廃止されたからだろうが、司令官という名前の代わりに専制君主という名前の方が望ましいようだ）
・この3名は 直ちに5年間のローマ市の司令官を任命すること。
・地方の分配についてはAntonyがOld Gaulと呼ばれるピレネー山脈との境界地域を除くGaul全域、Old GaulとスペインはLepidusに割り当て、
while Octavian was to have Africa,Sardinia,and Sicily, and the other islands in the vicinity thereof.Thus was the dominion of the Romans divided by the triumvirate among themselves. Only the assignment of the parts beyond the Adriatic was postponed, since these were still under the control of Brutus and Cassius, against whom Antony and Octavian were to wage war. Lepidus was to be consul the following year and to remain in the city to do what was needful there, meanwhile governing Spain by proxy. He was to retain three of his legions to guard the city, and to divide the other seven between Octavian and Antony, three to the former and four to the latter, so that each of them might lead twenty legions to the war.
