    A judge's duty is to grant justice, but his practice is to delay
    it: even those judges who know their duty adhere to the general
    practice.
    [Fr., Le devoir des juges est de rendre justice, leur metier est
    de la differer; quelques uns savent leur devoir, et font leur
    metier.]

At all a friend to truth.

I pleaded your cause, Sextus, having agreed to do so for two
thousand sesterces. How is it that you have sent me only a

lost through you." You ought to give me so much the more,
Sextus, as I had to blush for you.

Art thou a magistrate? then be severe:
If studious, copy fair what time hath blurr'd,
Redeem truth from his jaws: if a soldier,
Chase brave employments with a naked sword
Throughout the world. Fool not, for all may have
If they dare try, a glorious life, or grave.
