, 14, 3, i); and duty is to determine his dealings with Terentia after the divorce (A, 12, 21, 3). The sacred character of this bond of duty between kin is seen in the fact that it receives the same term, pietas, which designates allegiance due the gods. Its binding force is recognized even when it leads others to unwelcome action ; for example, the ill-natured attack of Metellus on Cicero is excused because prompted by pietas; i. E. , resentment at a fancied wrong to a brother (F. , 5, 2, 6 an...d 10); and the offense of joining Antony is, in one case, to be condoned because due to pietas; i. E. , gratitude for a father's restoration (F. , n, 22, i). The same high estimate of the bond is shown by the strong terms used to characterize its violation. The act of Quintus, father and son, in denouncing Cicero to Caesar is repeatedly called a scelus, a crime, an enormity (A. , 10, 7, 3; u, 21, i; cf. N, 9, 2). In one passage (F. , 4, 14, 3) scelus seems to include some treacherous act on the part of Terentia as well as of Quintus.
