ita nobismet ipsis1
[p. 1004]
accidit ut, quamquam essent multo magis alia lugenda,
tamen hoc doleremus quod, quo tempore aetas nostra perfuncta rebus amplissimis tamquam in portum confugere
deberet non inertiae neque desidiae, sed oti moderati
atque honesti, cumque ipsa oratio iam nostra canesceret
haberetque suam quandam maturitatem et quasi senectutem, tum arma sunt ea sumpta, quibus illi ipsi, qui didicerant eis uti gloriose, quem ad modum salutariter uterentur,
non reperiebant.
