Theophrastus mediocriterne delectat, cum tractat locos ab Aristotele ante tractatos? Quid igitur dubitamus in tota eius natura quaerere quid sit effectum? Proclivi currit oratio. A mene tu?

Inde igitur, inquit, ordiendum est. Deinde qui fit, ut ego nesciam, sciant omnes, quicumque Epicurei esse voluerunt? Sin tantum modo ad indicia veteris memoriae cognoscenda, curiosorum. At habetur! Et ego id scilicet nesciebam! Sed ut sit, etiamne post mortem coletur? Sunt enim prima elementa naturae, quibus auctis vírtutis quasi germen efficitur. Quia dolori non voluptas contraria est, sed doloris privatio.

Sapientem locupletat ipsa natura, cuius divitias Epicurus parabiles esse docuit. Item de contrariis, a quibus ad genera formasque generum venerunt. Sin tantum modo ad indicia veteris memoriae cognoscenda, curiosorum. Huius, Lyco, oratione locuples, rebus ipsis ielunior. Habes, inquam, Cato, formam eorum, de quibus loquor, philosophorum. Faceres tu quidem, Torquate, haec omnia; Tenesne igitur, inquam, Hieronymus Rhodius quid dicat esse summum bonum, quo putet omnia referri oportere? Hoc enim identidem dicitis, non intellegere nos quam dicatis voluptatem. Quae quidem sapientes sequuntur duce natura tamquam videntes; Ab his oratores, ab his imperatores ac rerum publicarum principes extiterunt.

Si enim ad populum me vocas, eum. Quid igitur, inquit, eos responsuros putas? Quid est, quod ab ea absolvi et perfici debeat? Cum ageremus, inquit, vitae beatum et eundem supremum diem, scribebamus haec. Iis igitur est difficilius satis facere, qui se Latina scripta dicunt contemnere. Summum a vobis bonum voluptas dicitur.

Istam voluptatem perpetuam quis potest praestare sapienti? Nondum autem explanatum satis, erat, quid maxime natura vellet. Et certamen honestum et disputatio splendida! omnis est enim de virtutis dignitate contentio. Cur tantas regiones barbarorum pedibus obiit, tot maria transmisit? Nihilo beatiorem esse Metellum quam Regulum. Iam

contemni non poteris. Quid ergo hoc loco intellegit honestum? Itaque nostrum est-quod nostrum dico, artis est-ad ea principia, quae accepimus.

Lorem ipsum dolor sit amet, consectetur adipiscing elit. Tibi hoc incredibile, quod beatissimum. Nam et complectitur verbis, quod vult, et dicit plane, quod intellegam; Nam ista vestra: Si gravis, brevis; Eadem nunc mea adversum te oratio est. Quid enim me prohiberet Epicureum esse, si probarem, quae ille diceret? Nummus in Croesi divitiis obscuratur, pars est tamen divitiarum. Ita multo sanguine profuso in laetitia et in victoria est mortuus. Duo Reges: constructio interrete. Hic nihil fuit, quod quaereremus. Conferam tecum, quam cuique verso rem subicias;

Audeo dicere, inquit. Scio enim esse quosdam, qui quavis lingua philosophari possint; Hoc loco tenere se Triarius non potuit. Qui ita affectus, beatum esse numquam probabis; Vitae autem degendae ratio maxime quidem illis placuit quieta. An me, inquam, nisi te audire vellem, censes haec dicturum fuisse? Sed eum qui audiebant, quoad poterant, defendebant sententiam suam. Cur tantas regiones barbarorum pedibus obiit, tot maria transmisit?

Quae hic rei publicae vulnera inponebat, eadem ille sanabat. Idemne, quod iucunde? Ergo adhuc, quantum equidem intellego, causa non videtur fuisse mutandi nominis. Sapiens autem semper beatus est et est aliquando in dolore; Efficiens dici potest. Tubulum fuisse, qua illum, cuius is condemnatus est rogatione, P.

Vitae autem degendae ratio maxime quidem illis placuit quieta. Ad eas enim res ab Epicuro praecepta dantur. Quae autem natura suae primae institutionis oblita est? Sed virtutem ipsam inchoavit, nihil amplius. Paupertas si malum est, mendicus beatus esse nemo potest, quamvis sit sapiens. Haec bene dicuntur, nec ego repugno, sed inter sese ipsa pugnant. Multoque hoc melius nos veriusque quam Stoici. Ut necesse sit omnium rerum, quae natura vigeant, similem esse finem, non eundem.

Eam si varietatem

diceres, intellegerem, ut etiam non dicente te intellego; Vitiosum est enim in dividendo partem in genere numerare. Nam illud vehementer repugnat, eundem beatum esse et multis malis oppressum. Quae cum magnifice primo dici viderentur, considerata minus probabantur. Verba tu fingas et ea dicas, quae non sentias? Ergo hoc quidem apparet, nos ad agendum esse natos.
