If Sir Philip Sidney were here, and if my Lord of Leicester follow not all the sooner, I would use her Majesty's liberty to return home. If her Majesty think me worthy the reputation of a poor, honest, and loyal servant, I have that contents me. For the rest, I wish 'Vivere sine invidia, mollesque inglorius annos Egigere, amicitias et mihi jungere pares."
But this is no more than the change of which a writer of no very strict cast speaks, as naturally belonging to their riper age: Conversis studiis, ætas animusque virilis Quærit opus, & amicitias: inservit honori: Commisisse cavet, quod mox mutare laboret. This is a point of infinite importance: let it not be thought tedious to spend even yet a few more moments in the discussion of it.
He spent his time in the city, still engaged in the politics of the day; as to which, though he dreaded the coming together of Cæsar and Pompey and Crassus those "graves principum amicitias" which were to become so detrimental to all who were concerned in them he foresaw as yet but little of the evil which was to fall upon his own head.

Howell, in his instructions for Foreign Travell, has said directly the reverse of what is ascribed to him: "I have beaten my brains," he tells us, "to make one sentence good Italian and congruous Latin, but could never do it; but in Spanish it is very feasible, as, for example, in this stanza: Infausta Graecia, tu paris gentes Lubricas, sed amicitias dolosas, Machinando fraudes cautilosas, Ruinando animas innocentes: which is good Latin enough; and yet is vulgar Spanish, intelligible to every plebeian."

Do you know, it is I, Willis, who am your new Bishop? It is only a fortnight since I learnt that you were so near me "`Quam dulce amicitias, Redintegrare nitidas' "and the very first point of it is that I am going to sponge on you, and ask myself to lunch.
"Man and wife hardly united; scarce ever without children. Computation, if two to one against two, how many against five? If confederacies were easy useless; many oppresses many. If possible only to some, dangerous. Principum amicitias." No. 50. Quincunque turpi fraude semel innotuit, Etiamsi verum dicit, amittit fidem. PHAED. Lib. i. Fab. x. 1.

Quanto plus propinquorum, quo major affinium numerus, tanto gratiosior senectus, nec ulla orbitatis pretia. XXI. Suscipere tam inimicitias, seu patris, seu propinqui, quam amicitias, necesse est: nec implacabiles durant.
