Quod vero impudentiam admiratus es eorum patronorum, qui aut, cum parva nescirent, magna profiterentur aut ea, quae maxima essent in iure civili, tractare auderent in causis, cum ea nescirent numquamque didicissent, utriusque rei facilis est et prompta defensio. Nam neque illud est mirandum, qui, quibus verbis coemptio fiat, nesciat, eundem eius mulieris, quae coemptionem fecerit, causam posse defendere; nec, si parvi navigi et magni eadem est in gubernando scientia, idcirco qui, quibus verbis erctum cieri oporteat, nesciat, idem erciscundae familiae causam agere non possit.

Nam, quod maximas centumviralis causas in iure positas protulisti, quae tandem earum causa fuit, quae ab homine eloquenti iuris imperito non ornatissime potuerit dici? Quibus quidem in causis omnibus, sicut in ipsa M'. Curi, quae abs te nuper est dicta, et in C. Hostili Mancini controversia atque in eo puero, qui ex altera natus erat uxore, non remisso nuntio superiori, fuit inter peritissimos homines summa de iure dissensio: quaero igitur, quid adiuverit oratorem in his causis iuris scientia, cum hic iuris consultus superior fuerit discessurus, qui esset non suo artificio, sed alieno, hoc est, non iuris scientia, sed eloquentia, sustentatus.
