" Nihil," inquit, " poterit turpiter suadere,
[p. 126]
quia adiuncta virtuti est." Non vides iterum, quale
sit summum bonum, cui custode opus est, ut bonum
sit ? Virtus autem quomodo voluptatem reget,
quam sequitur, cum sequi parentis sit, regere imperantis ? A tergo ponis quod imperat ? Egregium
autem habet virtus apud vos officium voluptates
praegustare !
