his accedunt
vitia non naturae sed trepidationis, cum ore
[p. 308]
concurrente rixari, si memoria fefellerit aut cogitatio
non suffragetur, quasi faucibus aliquid obstiterit,
insonare, in adversum tergere nares, obambulare
sermone inperfecto, resistere subito et laudem
silentio poscere; quae omnia persequi prope infinitum est; sua enim cuique sunt vitia.
