ita enim multa tum contra scriptum pro aequo
et bono dixit, ut hominem acutissimum Q. Scaevolam et in
iure, in quo illa causa vertebatur, paratissimum obrueret

eloquentium iuris peritissimus Crassus, iuris peritorum
eloquentissimus Scaevola putaretur. Qui quidem cum
peracutus esset ad excogitandum quid in iure aut in aequo
verum aut esset aut non esset, turn verbis erat ad rem
cum2 summa brevitate mirabiliter aptus.
