And, above all things, I see
that I have reason to rejoice on this account, that, since I am speaking in this place, to
which I am so entirely unaccustomed, I have a cause to advocate in which eloquence can hardly
fail any one; for I have to speak of the eminent and extraordinary virtue of Cnaeus Pompey;
and it is harder for me to find out how to end a discourse on such a subject, than how to
begin one. So that what I have to seek for is not so much a variety of arguments, as
moderation in employing them.
