To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:

Meantime the good understanding between Octaviam and the Senate had come to an end. The latter, being resolved to prevent him from obtaining apy farther power, gave the command of the Consular armies to D. Brutus; and Cicero talked of remov- ing the boy. But the **boy" soon showed the Senate that he was their master. He gained the confidence of the soldiers, who gladly followed the heir of Caesar to Rome. Though only 20 years of age, he demanded of the Senate the Consulship. At first they at- t...empted to evade his demand ; but his soldiers were encamped in the Campus Martius, and in the month of August he was elected Consul with his cousin Q. Pedins. The first act of his Consubhip showed tliat he had completely broken with the Senate. His col- league proposed a law declaring all the miurderers of Ciesar to be outlaws. Octavian then quitted Rome to march professedly against Antony, leaving Pedius in charge of the city ; but it soon appeared that he had come to an understanding with Antony, for he had hardly entered Etruria before the unwilling Senate were compelled, upon the proposal of Pedius, to repeal the sentence of outlawry against Antony and Lepidus.
