Translation

"Those proscriptions which were announced are said to have taken place by the will of Antonius."1
And Aelian says: "approaching, in any event, they made proscriptions both of those from [the] senate and of those classified in the equestrian order, killing these men."2 ['Proscriptions'] meaning accusations.

Greek original · Adler’s text

Προγραφαί· αἱ προγραφαὶ ἐκεῖναι αἱ κεκηρυγμέναι λέγονται βουλήσει Ἀντωνίου γενέσθαι. καὶ Αἰλιανὸς λέγει· ἐπανελθόντες γοῦν προγραφὰς καὶ τῶν ἐκ βουλῆς καὶ τῶν εἰς τὴν ἱππάδα τελούντων εἰργάσαντο, τούτους ἀποκτιννύντες. ἀντὶ τοῦ κατηγορίας.
