would draw vpon your selfe too pow∣erfull an enm••••ie, i•• this young man, who is po••ent and migh••i••, ••••ould re∣ceiue such an ini••rie f••om you. And doubtl••ss•• it might ••e well t••rmed an iniu••ie: beca••s•• ••h••re is no•• any man, whom the 〈◊〉〈◊〉 o•• ho••or exceedeth hi••. And h••, (le•• vs 〈◊〉〈◊〉 aside his nobi∣litie,) in thi•• r••sp••ct, is sup••riour to your L••gates, (m••n certainelie of ho∣n••st condition, and h••rmlesse p••rsons,) in that he is not onely Quaestor, but your owne Quaes••or. I vnderstand suf∣ficiently, that no mans il•• will can pre∣iudice y••u: but yet I would not there∣fore, th••t thre•• Bre••hren of a most no∣ble familie, cou••agious, and eloquent, should be angrie with you, especially, vpon som•• ground. Fo•• I see, that they are all three, like to be Tribunes of the people, one after an other; and who knowes the cond••••ion of times, which shall succeed in the Common-wealth, I for my part, am of opinion, that there will be troubles. Why therefore, would you expose your selfe, to ••he displeasure of th•• Tribunes? especi∣ally, wh••n, witho••t any checke, you may preferre the Quaestor before the Legates: who, if he follow the steps of his predecessors, ••s I hope and desire; your selfe shall par••icipa•••• of his com∣mendation: if otherwis••, the whole infamie will redowne to himselfe one∣ly.
