Age, Darei quantus ardor animi! qui, cum sordida et crudeli magorum tyrannide Persas liberaret unumque ex his obscuro loco abiectum corporis pondere urgueret, praeclari operis socio plagam ei inferre dubitanti, ne, dum magum petit, ipsum uulneraret, 'tu uero' inquit 'nihil est quod respectu mei timidius gladio utaris: uel per utrumque illum agas licet, dum hic quam celerrime pereat'.
Valerius Maximus. Factorvm et Dictorvm Memorabilivm, Libri Novem. Karl Friedrich Kempf. Leipsig. Teubner. 1888. Keyboarding.
