Denique etiam a philosophia profectus princeps Xenophon,
Socraticus ille, post ab Aristotele Callisthenes, comes
Alexandri, scripsit historiam, et is quidem rhetorico paene
more; ille autem superior leniore quodam sono est usus, et
qui illum impetum oratoris non habeat, vehemens fortasse
minus, sed aliquanto tamen est, ut mihi quidem videtur,
dulcior. Minimus natu horum omnium Timaeus, quantum
autem iudicare possum, longe eruditissimus et rerum copia
et sententiarum varietate abundantissimus et ipsa compositione
verborum non impolitus magnam eloquentiam
ad scribendum attulit, sed nullum usum forensem.'
M. Tulli Ciceronis Rhetorica. M. Tullius Cicero. A. S. Wilkins. 1902.
