sed quid ego ineptus de Roscio apud Pisonem
dico? ignotum hominem scilicet pluribus verbis commendo.
estne quisquam omnium mortalium de quo melius
existimes tu? estne quisquam qui tibi purior, pudentior,
humanior, officiosior liberaliorque videatur? quid? tu,
Saturi, qui contra hunc venis, existimas aliter? nonne, quotienscumque
in causa in nomen huius incidisti, totiens hunc
et virum bonum esse dixisti et honoris causa appellasti?
quod nemo nisi aut honestissimo aut amicissimo facere
consuevit.
