vertes te ad alteram
scholam; disseres de triumpho: 'quid tandem habet iste
currus, quid vincti ante currum duces, quid simulacra oppidorum,
quid aurum, quid argentum, quid legati in equis et
tribuni, quid clamor militum, quid tota illa pompa? inania
sunt ista, mihi crede, delectamenta paene puerorum, captare
plausus, vehi per urbem, conspici velle. quibus ex rebus
nihil est quod solidum tenere, nihil quod referre ad voluptatem
corporis possis.
