Page 187 - Vive, vale. Si quid novisti rectius istis Candidus imperti ; si non his utere mecum.
Page 275 - Natales grate numeras ? Ignoscis amicis ? Lenior et melior fis accedente senecta ? Quid te exempta levat spinis de pluribus una ? Vivere si recte nescis decede peritis.

Multa senem circumveniunt incommoda, vel quod quaerit et inventis miser abstinet ac timet uti, vel quod res omnes timide gelideque ministrat, dilator, spe longus, iners, avidusque futuri, difficilis, querulus, laudator temporis acti se puero, castigator censorque minorum.
Page 296 - Munus et officium nil scribens ipse docebo, Unde parentur opes, quid alat formetque poetam ; Quid deceat, quid non ; quo virtus, quo ferat error.
Page 170 - ... ad summam: sapiens uno minor est love, dives, liber, honoratus, pulcher, rex denique regum, praecipue sanus, nisi cum pituita molesta est.
