    PRO ARCHIA POETA ORATIO

    I. si quid est in me ingeni, iudices*, quod sentio quam sit exiguum, aut si qua exercitatio* dicendi, in qua me non infitior mediocriter esse versatum*, aut si huiusce rei* ratio* aliqua ab optimarum artium studiis ac disciplina profecta, a qua ego nullum confiteor aetatis meae tempus abhorruisse, earum rerum omnium vel in primis hic A. Licinius* fructum a me repetere prope suo iure debet. nam quoad longissime potest mens mea respicere spatium praeteriti temporis et pueritiae memoriam recordari ultimam, inde usque* repetens hunc video mihi principem* et ad suscipiendam et ad ingrediendam rationem* horum studiorum exstitisse. quod si haec vox huius hortatu praeceptisque conformata non nullis aliquando saluti fuit, a quo* id accepimus quo ceteris* opitulari* et alios* servare* possemus, huic* profecto ipsi, quantum est situm in nobis, et opem* et salutem* ferre* debemus. [2] ac ne quis a nobis hoc ita dici forte miretur, quod alia quaedam in hoc facultas sit ingeni neque* haec dicendi ratio aut disciplina*, ne nos quidem* huic uni studio penitus umquam dediti fuimus. etenim omnes artes quae ad humanitatem pertinent habent quoddam commune vinclum et quasi cognatione quadam inter se continentur+.
