O ! ne ille tunc merito et sibi et ceteris,
quibus ad dispiciendam veritatem non erat obfusa
caligo, supra eum eminere visus est, infra quem
omnia iacebant. Multo potentior, multo locupletior
fuit omnia tunc possidente Alexandro ; plus enim
erat, quod hic nollet accipere, quam quod ille posset
dare.
