Nec facile dixerim, utrum turpius sit infitiari an
repetere beneficium ; id enim genus huius crediti
[p. 4]
est, ex quo tantum recipiendum sit, quantum ultro
refertur. Decoquere vero foedissimum ob hoc
ipsum, quia non opus est ad liberandam fidem facultatibus sed animo ; reddit enim beneficium, qui
debet. Sed cum sit in ipsis crimen, qui ne confessione quidem grati sunt, in nobis quoque est.
L. Annaeus Seneca. Moral Essays: volume 3. John W. Basore. London and New York. Heinemann. 1935.
