ilia magis
[p. 250]
finitionibus aut qualitatibus prosunt, si robur corporibus bonum est, non minus sanitas; Si furtum scelus, magis
sacrilegium; Si abstinentia virus, et continentia; Si
mundus providentia regitur, administranda respublica;
Si domus aedificari sine ratione non potest, quid urbs
agenda? si agenda est1 navalium cura, et armorum.
ac mihi quidem sufficeret hoc genus,
1 urbs universa? si agenda est, Radermacher: agenda si, B: agendas, A.
