Chrysippus quoque, penes quem subtile illud
acumen est et in imam penetrans veritatem, qui
rei agendae causa loquitur et verbis non ultra, quam
ad intellectum satis est, utitur, totum librum suum
his ineptus replet, ita ut de ipso officio dandi, accipienda reddendi beneficii pauca admodum dicat ; nec
his fabulas, sed haec fabulis inserit.
