Non culleum, non serpentes, non
carcerem decrevit memor, non de quo censeret, sed
cui in consilio esset; mollissimo genere poenae
contentum esse debere patrem dixit in filio adulescentulo impulse in id scelus, in quo se, quod proximum
erat ab innocentia, timide gessisset ; debere illum
ab urbe et a parentis oculis submoveri.
