His omnibus palam atque aperte probatis quid omnino superest, in quo suspicio aliqua magiae delitescat? Immo quid omnino est, quod vos manifesti mendacii non revincat? Occulte fabricatum esse dixistis quod Pontianus, splendidissimus eques, fieri curavit, quod Saturninus, vir gravis et probe inter suos cognitus, in taberna sua sedens propalam exsculpsit, quod ornatissima matrona munere suo adiuvit, quod et futurum et factum multi cum servorum tum amicorum qui ad me ventitabant scierunt.
Now that all this has been openly and clearly proved, is there anything left with some hint of magic lurking in it? Or rather is there anything at all that does not prove you to be barefaced liars? You said that something ordered by Pontianus, a most distinguished knight, was made clandestinely although Saturninus, a respectable man honorably known to his colleagues, carved it in full view sitting in his workshop, although a lady of very high rank contributed a gift of her own to it, although many slaves and friends who came to my house knew about it both before and after its creation.
