'Well, this is the inscription I gave to Scaevola to cut on the one altar we promised he was cheap at one. 'Silvano invicto sacrum L. Sentius Castus signifer Leg VI. Et Tetricus explorator murus Ob cervum eximiae formae captum Quem multi antecessores eorum Praedari non potuerunt.
Non libet enim mihi deplorare vitam, quod multi et ei docti saepe fecerunt, neque me vixisse paenitet, quoniam ita vixi, ut non frustra me natum existimem, et ex vita ita discedo tamquam ex hospitio, non tamquam e domo; commorandi enim natura divorsorium nobis, non habitandi dedit.

"Scipio invicte;" and likewise I myself in "Hoc motu radiantis ETESIAE IN Vada Ponti." This, however, would seldom be suffered among us, though the Greeks often commend it as a beauty.
