" Sed instigasset in
se regem insolentem et omnia sua magno aestimari
volentem. Nihil ad rem pertinet, utrum dare aliquid
regi nolis an accipere a rege ; in aequo utramque
ponit repulsam, et superbo fastidiri acerbius est quam
non timeri. Vis scire, quid vere voluerit ? Noluit
ire ad voluntariam servitutem is, cuius libertatem
civitas libera ferre non potuit !
