He who is upright in his way of life and free from sin.
Seize the day, and put the least possible trust in tomorrow.
Why harass with eternal purposes a mind to weak to grasp them?
Imagine every day to he 5 the last6 of a life surrounded with hopes, cares, anger, and fear. The hours, that come unexpectedly, will be so much the more grateful.
Let every man find pleasure in practising the profession he has learnt.
Alas, Postumus, the fleeting years slip by, nor will piety give any stay to wrinkles and pressing old age and untamable death.
