De laude Agriculturae ex Marco Catone initio operis sui.

EST INTERDVM praestare populo, mercaturis rem quaerere, ni tam periculosum siet, & item foenerari, si tam honestum siet: maiores enim nostri sic habuerunt, & ita in legibus posuerunt, furem duplici condemnari, foeneratorem, quadrupli. Quanto peiorem ciuem existimarūt foenera∣torem, quam furem, hinc licet existimari. Et virum bonum cum laudabant ita laudabant, bonum agricolam, bonumq́ue colonum amplissime laudari existimabatur, qui ita laudabatur. Mercatorem autem strennuum, studiosumq́ue rei querendae existimo, verum, vt supra dixi periculosum, & cala∣mitosum. At ex agricolis, & viri fortissimi, & milites strennuissimi gignuntur, maxime{que} pius quę∣stus, stabilissimusq́ue consequitur, minimeq́ue inuidiosos, minimeq́ue male cogitantes sunt, qui in eo studio occupati sunt.
