Cum potuero, vivam quomodo oportet. Nec malignitas me ista multo veneno tincta deterrebit ab
optimis ; ne virus quidem istud, quo alios spargitis,
quo vos necatis, me impediet, quo minus perseverem
laudare vitam, non quam ago, sed quam agendam
scio, quo minus virtutem adorem et ex intervallo
ingenti reptabundus sequar.
