consulship

In the year following his term of consulship, the proconsul held imperial authority outside of Rome in whichever province he was assigned to govern.

在执政权任期内，总督是马以外治理行省的最高权力。

For when he had carried the consulship for a friend of his, against the pursuit of Sylla, and that Sylla did a little resent thereat, and began to speak great, Pompey turned upon him again, and in effect bade him be quiet.

有一次庞拜他的一位朋友争执政官之职，与苏拉所推举之人竞选，竟而获胜。在苏拉对此表示不满而开始争吵的时候，庞拜简直反唇相向，叫他不要多言。
