There remained to them,including those who had come over from Brutus,eleven legions of infantry and 14,000 horse.Of these Antony took,for his foreign expedition,six legions and 10,000 horse.Octavian had five legions and 4000 horse,but of these he gave two legions to Antony in exchange for others that Antony had left in Italy under the command of Calenus. Octavian then proceeded toward the Adriatic;but when Antony arrived at Ephesus he offered a splendid sacrifice to the city's goddess and pardoned those who,after the disaster to Brutus and Cassius, had fled to the temple as suppliants, except Petronius, who had been privy to the murder of Caesar, and Quintus,who had betrayed Dolabella to Cassius at Laodicea.
兵士らはそこに残り、Brutus側から入ってきた兵も含めると、歩兵部隊11レギオンと馬1万4000頭になった。Octavianは5レギオンと馬4000頭を持ったが、AntonyがイタリアにCalenusの指揮の下に残す兵を引き換えに2レギオンをAntonyに与えた。そしてOctavianはアドリア海に向かって進んだが、AntonyはEphesusに着いた時、街の女神にすばらしい捧げものをし、BrutusとCassiusの敗北の後、嘆願して寺院に入った者をPetroniusとQuintusを除いて許した。PetroniusはCaesar殺害の当事者でQuintusはLaodiceaでCassiusにDolabellaの計画を漏らした。
As Octavian was journeying to Rome his illness became acute at Brundusium,and a rumor gained currency that he was dead.On his recovery he returned to the city and showed to Antony's friends the letters Antony had written.The Antonians directed Calenus to give Octavian the two legions,and wrote to Sextius in Africa to turn that province over to him.This was the course of the Antonians while,as it appeared that Lepidus had not been guilty of any serious wrong,Octavian transferred Africa to him in exchange for his former provinces.He also sold the remainder of the property confiscated under the conscriptions.The task of assigning the soldiers to their colonies and dividing the land was one of exceeding difficulty.
Octavianはローマへの旅の途中、Brundusiumで病が重くなり、Octavianは亡くなったという噂が流布した。Octavianは回復すると町に戻り、Antonyの友人にAntonyが書いた手紙を見せた。Antony派はCalenusにOctavianに２レギオン渡すよう命じ、アフリカのSextiusにその地方を彼に譲るよう手紙を書いた。Lepidusは重大な過ちを犯して有罪であるようには見えなかったため、Antony派はそのような方向に進め、Octavianは自分の以前所有していた地方と引き換えにアフリカを譲った。Octavianはまた徴兵制の下で没収した財産の残りも売った。兵士らに領土を割り当て国土を分割するのは並々ならぬ困難な作業の１つだった。
