Sed vide, ne totum istud tuum vitium sit ; non vis
enim nisi consul aut prytanis aut ceryx aut sufes
administrare rem publicam. Quid si militare nolis
nisi imperator aut tribunus ? Etiam si alii primam
frontem tenebunt, te sors inter triarios posuerit, inde
voce, adhortatione, exemplo, animo milita ; praecisis quoque manibus ille in proelio invenit, quod
partibus conferat, qui stat tamen et clamore iuvat.
