at prooemium aliquando ac narrationem dicet malus homo et argumenta, sic ut nihil sit in iis requirendum. nam et latro pugnabit acriter, virtus tamen erit fortitudo; et tormenta sine gemitu feret malus servus, tolerantia tamen doloris laude sua non carebit. multa fiunt eadem sed aliter. sufficiant igitur haec, quia de utilitate supra tractavimus.
