    35
    ventum erat ad Vestae, quarta iam parte diei
    praeterita, et casu tum respondere vadato
    debebat, quod ni fecisset, perdere litem.
    'si me amas,' inquit 'paulum hic ades.' 'inteream, si
    aut valeo stare aut novi civilia iura;
    40
    et propero quo scis.' 'dubius sum, quid faciam', inquit,
    'tene relinquam an rem.' 'me, sodes.' 'non faciam' ille,
    et praecedere coepit; ego, ut contendere durum
    cum victore, sequor. 'Maecenas quomodo tecum?'
    hinc repetit. 'paucorum hominum et mentis bene sanae.'
    45
    'nemo dexterius fortuna est usus. haberes
    magnum adiutorem, posset qui ferre secundas,
    hunc hominem velles si tradere: dispeream+, ni+
    summosses+ omnis.' 'non isto vivimus illic,
    quo tu rere, modo; domus hac nec purior ulla est
    50
    nec magis his aliena malis; nil mi officit, inquam,
    ditior hic aut est quia doctior; est locus uni
    cuique suus.' 'magnum narras, vix credibile.' 'atqui
    sic habet.' 'accendis quare cupiam magis illi
    proximus esse.' 'velis tantummodo: quae tua virtus,
    55
    expugnabis: et est qui vinci possit eoque
    difficilis aditus primos habet.' 'haud mihi dero:
    muneribus servos corrumpam; non, hodie si
    exclusus fuero, desistam; tempora quaeram,
    occurram in triviis, deducam. nil sine magno
    60
    vita labore dedit mortalibus.' haec dum agit, ecce
    Fuscus Aristius occurrit, mihi carus et illum
    qui pulchre nosset. consistimus. 'unde venis et
    quo tendis?' rogat et respondet. vellere coepi
    et pressare manu lentissima bracchia, nutans,
    65
    distorquens oculos, ut me eriperet. male salsus
    ridens dissimulare; meum iecur urere bilis.
    'certe nescio quid secreto velle loqui te
    aiebas mecum.' 'memini bene, sed meliore
    tempore dicam; hodie tricensima sabbata: vin tu
    70
    curtis Iudaeis oppedere?' 'nulla mihi' inquam
    'relligio est.' 'at mi: sum paulo infirmior, unus
    multorum. ignosces; alias loquar.' huncine solem
    tam nigrum surrexe mihi    +! fugit inprobus ac me
    sub cultro linquit. casu venit obvius illi
    75
    adversarius et 'quo tu, turpissime?' magna
    inclamat voce, et 'licet antestari?' ego vero
    oppono auriculam. rapit in ius; clamor utrimque,
    undique concursus. sic me servavit Apollo.
