At ille non pertimuit saneque fidenter: Istis quidem ipsis verbis, inquit; Satis est tibi in te, satis in legibus, satis in mediocribus amicitiis praesidii. Quae si potest singula consolando levare, universa quo modo sustinebit? Tum Lucius: Mihi vero ista valde probata sunt, quod item fratri puto. Igitur neque stultorum quisquam beatus neque sapientium non beatus. Quae diligentissime contra Aristonem dicuntur a Chryippo. Suo genere perveniant ad extremum; Nos vero, inquit ille; Illo enim addito iuste fit recte factum, per se autem hoc ipsum reddere in officio ponitur.

Nam neque virtute retinetur ille in vita, nec iis, qui sine virtute sunt, mors est oppetenda. Sed vobis voluptatum perceptarum recordatio vitam beatam facit, et quidem corpore perceptarum. Prioris generis est docilitas, memoria; Quid autem habent admirationis, cum prope accesseris?

Ergo id est convenienter naturae vivere, a natura discedere. Non quam nostram quidem, inquit Pomponius iocans; Expressa vero in iis aetatibus, quae iam confirmatae sunt. Atqui reperies, inquit, in hoc quidem pertinacem; Quamquam haec quidem praeposita recte et reiecta dicere licebit. Sed ea mala virtuti magnitudine obruebantur. Quod autem magnum dolorem brevem, longinquum levem esse dicitis, id non intellego quale sit. Hoc est non modo cor non habere, sed ne palatum quidem.

Duo Reges: constructio interrete. Non igitur potestis voluptate omnia dirigentes aut tueri aut retinere virtutem. Ac tamen hic mallet non dolere. Quam ob rem tandem, inquit, non satisfacit?

Lorem ipsum dolor sit amet, consectetur adipiscing elit. Tum ille: Tu autem cum ipse tantum librorum habeas, quos hic tandem requiris? Isto modo ne improbos quidem, si essent boni viri. Est autem etiam actio quaedam corporis, quae motus et status naturae congruentis tenet;

Verum audiamus. Quis animo aequo videt eum, quem inpure ac flagitiose putet vivere? Dicet pro me ipsa virtus nec dubitabit isti vestro beato M. Ita enim

vivunt quidam, ut eorum vita refellatur oratio. Cur igitur, inquam, res tam dissimiles eodem nomine appellas? Septem autem illi non suo, sed populorum suffragio omnium nominati sunt.

Non dolere, inquam, istud quam vim habeat postea videro; Audio equidem philosophi vocem, Epicure, sed quid tibi dicendum sit oblitus es. Illa tamen simplicia, vestra versuta. Ego vero volo in virtute vim esse quam maximam; Callipho ad virtutem nihil adiunxit nisi voluptatem, Diodorus vacuitatem doloris. Sed in rebus apertissimis nimium longi sumus. Satis est ad hoc responsum. An potest cupiditas finiri? Ad eas enim res ab Epicuro praecepta dantur. Quod cum accidisset ut alter alterum necopinato videremus, surrexit statim.

Immo vero, inquit, ad beatissime vivendum parum est, ad beate vero satis. Ad corpus diceres pertinere-, sed ea, quae dixi, ad corpusne refers? Quis enim est, qui non videat haec esse in natura rerum tria? Incommoda autem et commoda-ita enim estmata et dustmata appello-communia esse voluerunt, paria noluerunt.

Non minor, inquit, voluptas percipitur ex vilissimis rebus quam ex pretiosissimis. Tu enim ista lenius, hic Stoicorum more nos vexat. Quid ait Aristoteles reliquique Platonis alumni? Indicant pueri, in quibus ut in speculis natura cernitur. Non igitur potestis voluptate omnia dirigentes aut tueri aut retinere virtutem. Eodem modo is enim tibi nemo dabit,

quod, expetendum sit, id esse laudabile. At cum de plurimis eadem dicit, tum certe de maximis. Stoici autem, quod finem bonorum in una virtute ponunt, similes sunt illorum;

At enim, qua in vita est aliquid mali, ea beata esse non potest. Non enim ipsa genuit hominem, sed accepit a natura inchoatum. Quod maxime efficit Theophrasti de beata vita liber, in quo multum admodum fortunae datur. Ut placet, inquit, etsi enim illud erat aptius, aequum cuique concedere. Iis igitur est difficilius satis facere, qui se Latina scripta dicunt contemnere. Facit igitur Lucius noster prudenter, qui audire de summo bono potissimum velit; Traditur, inquit, ab Epicuro ratio neglegendi doloris. Stoici autem, quod finem bonorum in una virtute ponunt, similes sunt illorum; Tecum optime, deinde etiam cum mediocri amico.
