[17] Saepe cum per totam lucubrauerat noctem, ab ipso cibo statim ad declamandum ueniebat. Iam uero quin rem inimicissimam corpori faceret uetari nullo modo poterat: post cenam fere lucubrabat nec [p. 64] patiebatur alimenta per somnum quietemque aequaliter digeri, sed perturbata ac dissipata in caput agebat; itaque oculorum et aciem contuderat et colorem mutauerat. Memoria ei natura quidem felix, plurimum tamen arte adiuta. numquam ille quae dicturus erat ediscendi causa relegebat: edidicerat illa, cum scripserat; quod eo magis in illo mirabile uideri potest, quod non lente et anxie, sed eodem paene quo dicebat impetu scribebat.
