ventum est ad partem operis destinati longe gravissimam. cuius equidem onus si tantum opinione
prima concipere potuissem, quanto me premi ferens
sentio, maturius consulmssem vires meas. sed initio
pudor omittendi, quae promiseram, tenuit; mox,
quanquam per singulas prope partes labor cresceret,
ne perderem, quae iam effecta erant, per omnes
difficultates animo me sustentavi.
Quintilian. With An English Translation. Harold Edgeworth Butler. Cambridge. Cambridge, Mass., Harvard University Press; London, William Heinemann, Ltd. 1922.
