Baiae

ego, ut postulas, Baiana negotia chorumque illum de quo scire vis, cum perspexero, tum scribam, ne quid ignores.

For my part I shall write as you ask of the Baiae characters and the ‘circus’ on which you want information as soon as I see clear, so that you know all there is to know.

Yo, como demandas, te contaré los asuntos de Bayas y aquel coro por el cual te interesas, para que no desconozcas nada, en cuanto esté bien informado.

Commentary

Cicero promises Atticus to inquire and tell him “about the bussiness from Baiae”, that is, about Hircio, Pansa and Balbo, who were in Baiae. He will do so in the next letter (Cic.Att.363).
