Igitur primus omnium Romanorum divus Julius cum exercitu Britanniam ingressus, quanquam prospera pugna terruerit incolas ac littore potitus sit, potest videri ostendisse posteris, non tradidisse. Mox bella civilia et in rempublicam versa principum arma, ac longa oblivio Britanniae etiam in pace. Consilium id divus Augustus vocabat, Tiberius praeceptum.
This collection was made early in the Middle Ages, when it was much used for purposes of education. We append a few examples of these sayings: "Beneficium dando accipit, qui digno dedit." "Furor fit laesa saepius patientia." "Comes facundus in via pro vehiculo est." "Nimium altercando veritas amittitur." "Iniuriarum remedium est oblivio." "Malum est consilium quod mutari non potest."
Properly said of a veto interposed by the Tribunes; then of any prohibition. Non quia==not that, is characteristic of late writers. It is followed by the subj. Z. 537, and note H. 1, 15.

Od. 4, 9, 25, seq.

Quidquid ex Agricola amavimus, quidquid mirati sumus, manet mansurumque est in animis hominum, in aeternitate temporum, fama rerum. Nam multos veterum, velut inglorios, et ignobiles, oblivio obruet: Agricola posteritati narratus et traditus superstes erit. Of these the following classes may require explanation. The other abbreviations are either familiar or sufficiently obvious of themselves.
