[56]
Sometimes, again,
we may speak in mockery when we say the opposite
of what we desire to be understood, as in Cicero's
denunciation of Clodius1: “Believe me, your well known integrity has cleared you of all blame, your
modesty has saved you, your past life has been your
salvation.”
1 From the lost speech in Clodium et Curionem.
