Clarorum virorum facta moresque posteris tradere, antiquitus usitatum, ne nostris quidem temporibus quamquam incuriosa suorum aetas omisit, quotiens magna aliqua ac nobilis virtus vicit ac supergressa est vitium parvis magnisque civitatibus  commune, ignorantiam recti et invidiam.
To hand down to posterity the works and ways of famous men was a custom of the past: our age has not yet abandoned it even now, indifferent though it be to its own affairs, whenever, at least, some great and notable virtue has overcome and surmounted the vice common alike to small states and great'ignorance of what is right and jealousy.
