II. Legimus, cum Aruleno Rustico Paetus Thrasea, Herennio Senecioni Priscus Helvidius laudati essent, capitale fuisse: neque in ipsos modo auctores, sed in libros quoque eorum saevitum, delegato triumviris ministerio, ut monumenta clarissimorum ingeniorum in comitio ac foro urerentur.
For public documents the chisel and the rock, for private the pen and the prepared skin, seem to have been preferred by them; and in the earlier times, at any rate, they employed no other materials. Media . . . quam ante regnum Cyri superlovis et incrementa Persidos legimus Asiae reginam totius. Amm. Marc, xxiii. 6. The origin of the Median nation is wrapt in a profound obscurity.
Ann. 15, 50; His. 5, 20. In many editions, mihi stands before nunc narraturo. But nunc is the emphatic word, and should stand first, as it does in the best MSS. II. Legimus. Quis? Tacitus ejusdemque aetatis homines alii. Ubi? In actis diurnis. Wr. Hence the propriety of his saying legimus, rather than vidimus or meminimus, which have been proposed as corrections. Aruleno Rustico.
Legimus quoque Chederlaomer percussisse eos qui erant in deserto Phaaran quod nunc dicitur Ascalon, et circa eam Regio Palestinorum. Hieronymus. Haec Bersheba erat bona et spectabilis, vltimo tempore Christianorum, et adhuc ibi restant nonnullae Ecclesiae.
Non legimus, saith he, prostratos adorasse, sed ut erant discumbentes accepisse et manducasse. Christus, saith Martyr, eucharistiam apostolis una secum sedentibus aut discumbentibus distribuit. G. J. Vossius puts it out of doubt that Christ was still sitting at the giving of the bread to the apostles.
Est in manibus laudatio, quam cum legimus, quem philosophum non contemnimus? Nec vero ille in luce modo atque in oculis civium magnus, sed intus domique praestantior. Qui sermo, quae praecepta! Quanta notitia antiquitatis, scientia iuris auguri! Multae etiam, ut in homine Romano, litterae: omnia memoria tenebat non domestica solum, sed etiam externa bella.
SCRIPTUM VIDEO: so in Acad. 2, 129; Div. 1, 31; cf. also N.D. 1, 72 ut videmus in scriptis; Off. 2, 25 ut scriptum legimus; also cf. n. on 26 videmus. ARGANTHONIUS: the story is from Herodotus 1, 163.
Gorgias, it is said, was the first Orator who practised this species of concinnity. The following passage in my Defence of Milo is an example. "Est enim, Judices, haec non scripta, fed nata Lex; quam non didicimus, accepimus, legimus, verum ex Natura ipsa arripuimus, hausimus, expressimus; ad quam non docti, sed facti; non instituti, sed imbuti simus."
