et ita quipiam, in ministrando segnes in obloquendo celeres, in tractatibus otiosi in seditionibus occupati, in caritate infirmi in factione robusti, in aemulationum conservatione stabiles in sententiarum assertione nutantes, nituntur regere ecclesiam, quos iam regi necesse erit per senectam.
So it is that some individuals, slow in their ministry but quick in detraction, idle in preaching but busy in dissension, weak in love but strong in faction, steady in maintaining jealousies but vacillating in expressions of opinion, strive to direct the Church although they are so old that presently they themselves will need direction.
