82.11 After he was made censor, he deprived a young knight of his horse because, at the time when war was being waged against Carthage, this young man had given an expensive dinner for which he had ordered an honey-cake to be made in the form of the city, and, calling this Carthage, he set it before the company for them to plunder. When the young man asked the reason why he had been degraded, Scipio said, Because you plundered Carthage before I did!
82.12 Seeing Gaius Licinius coming before him, he said, I know that this man is guilty of perjury, but, since no one accuses him, I cannot myself be both accuser and judge. Cf. Cicero, Oration for Cluentius, 48 (134); Valerius Maximus, iv. 1. 10.
82.13 He was sent out by the Senate a third time for the purpose, as Cleitomachus Poseidonius (instead of Cleitomachus) is found in Moralia, 777 A, and is also suggested by Athenaeus, 549 D. says, of Looking upon men’s arrogant acts and their acts of good order,Homer, Od. xvii. 487. Scipio’s journeyings, beginning in 141 B.C., took him over most of the countries around the eastern end of the Mediterranean Sea. that is, as an inspector of cities, peoples, and kings; and when he arrived at Alexandria and, after disembarking, was walking with his toga covering his head, the Alexandrians quickly surrounded him, and insisted that he uncover and show his face to their yearning eyes. And so he uncovered amid shouting and applause. The king could hardly keep up with them in walking because of his inactive life and his pampering of his body, Ptolemy VII., called Physcon by the Alexandrians because of his fat and unwieldy body. and Scipio whispered softly to Panaetius, Already the Alexandrians have received some benefit from our visit. For it is owing to us that they have seen their king walk. Cf. Moralia, 777 A; Diodorus, xxxiii. 28a; Athenaeus, 549 D; Cicero, Academics, ii. 2 (5); Justin, Historiae Philippicae, xxxviii. 8. 8.
