Section 2 Translation: She visited the house frequently, not secretly, but with many companions, clung to him when he went out, gave him honours and gifts: finally, slaves, freedmen (and) furnishings of the emperor's were seen often at the house of the adulterer. But Claudius was unaware of (the state of) his own marriage. Now Messalina, because of the easiness of the adulteries, turned to unusual lusts. Silius, whether because of his fateful folly or thinking that the very dangers were a cure for the imminent dangers, pressed for the concealment to be cast aside. Certainly, they should not wait while the emperor grows old.
