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 read more

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.

Therefore I say again
I utterly abhor, yea, from my soul
Refuse you for my judge, whom yet once more
I hold my most malicious for and think not
At all a friend to truth.
