Nullam enim illi nostri sapientissimi et sanctissimi viri vim concionis esse voluerunt, quae scisseret plebs, aut quae populus juberet; summota concione, distributis partibus, tributim et centuriatim descriptis ordinibus, classibus, aetatibus, auditis auctoribus, re multos dies promulgata et cognita, juberi vetarique voluerunt.

"Populus me sibilat; at mihi plaudo Ipse domi, simul ac nummos contemplor in arca." And never did a man submit to infamy for anything but its true reward, money.

See ante, i. 161, note 2. See ante, iii. 55. After this follows a line which Boswell has omitted: 'Then rises fresh, pursues his wonted game. Cato, act i. sc. 4. Boswell was right, and Oglethorpe wrong; the exclamation in Suetonius is, 'Utinam populus Romanus unam cervicem haberet. Calig. xxx.
