Talibus orantem dictis, arasque tenentem, Audiit omnipotens, oculosque ad moenia torsit Regia, et oblitos fanioB melioris amantes.

" Vade age, nate, voca Zephyros, et Inhere pennis;
Dardaniumque ducem, Tyria Carthagine qui nunc Exspectat, fatisque datas non respicit urbes, Alloquere, et celeres defer mea dicta per auras.
Non ilium nobis genetrix pulcherrima talem Promisit, Graiumque ideo bis vinclicat armis;
Sed fore, qui gravidarn imperils belloque frementem Italiam regeret, genus alto a sanguine Teuci-i Proderet, ac totum sub leges mitteret orbem.

Quod si in scena, id est in concione, in qua rebus fictis et adumbratis loci plurimum est, tamen verum valet, si modo id patefactum et illustratum est; quid in amicitia fieri oportet, quaj tota veri- tate perpenditur? in qua nisi, ut dicitur, apertum pectus videas tuumque ostendns, nihil fidum, nihil exploratum habeas ; ne amarc quidem aut amari, quum, id quam vere fiat, ignores. Quamquam ista assentatio, quamvis perniciosa sit, nocere tamen neinini potest, nisi ei, qui earn recipit atque ea delectatur. Ita fit, ut is assentatoribus pate- -faciat aures suas maxime, qui ipse sibi assentetur
et se maxime ipse delectet. Omnino est amans sui virtus: optinie enim se ipse novit, quamque amabilis sit, intelliget: ego autem non de virtute nunc loquor, sed de virtutis opinione. Virtute enim ipsa non tam multi prauditi esse, quam videri volant. Hos delectat assentatio; his fictus ad ipsorum voluntat'um sermo quum adhibetur, ora- tionem illam vanam testimonium esse laudum suariim putant. Nulla est igitur haec amicitia, quum alter verum audire non vult, alter ad men- tiendum paratus est.
