At multa hoc commoda oriuntur, et tutior est vita
melioribus amorque et secundum bonorum iudicium
aetasque securior, quam innocentia, quam grata mens
prosequitur. Fuisset enim iniquissima rerum natura,
si hoc tantum bonum miserum et anceps et sterile
fecisset. Sed illud intuere, an ad istam virtutem,
quae saepe tuta ac facili aditur via, etiam per saxa
et rupes et feris ac serpentibus obsessum iter fueris
iturus.
