Equidem
saepe hoc audivi de patre et de socero meo, nostros
quoque homines, qui excellere sapientiae gloria vellent,

complecti. Meminerant illi Sex. Aelium; M'. vero
Manilium nos etiam vidimus transverso ambulantem foro;
quod erat insigne eum, qui id faceret, facere civibus suis
omnibus consili sui copiam; ad quos olim et ita ambulantis
et in solio sedentis domi sic adibatur, non solum ut de iure
civili ad eos, verum etiam de filia conlocanda, de fundo
emendo, de agro colendo, de omni denique aut officio aut
negotio referretur.

Haec fuit P. Crassi illius veteris, haec
Ti. Coruncani, haec proavi generi mei Scipionis prudentissimi
hominis sapientia, qui omnes pontifices maximi
fuerunt, ut ad eos de omnibus divinis atque humanis rebus
referretur; eidemque in senatu et apud populum et in
causis amicorum et domi et militiae consilium suum
fidemque praestabant.
