Haec L. Pauli humanitas admonet me ne de Cn. Pompei clementia taceam. regem Armeniae Tigranem, qui et per se magna cum populo Romano bella gesserat et infestissimum urbi nostrae Mitridatem Ponto pulsum uiribus suis protexerat, in conspectu suo diutius iacere supplicem passus non est, sed benignis uerbis recreatum diadema, quod abiecerat, capiti reponere iussit certisque rebus imperatis in pristinum fortunae habitum restituit, aeque pulchrum esse iudicans et uincere reges et facere.
