Itaque Sulla, quoius facundiae, non aetati a Manlio concessum, pauca verba huiusce modi locutus: Rex Bocche, magna laetitia nobis est, quom te talem virum di monuere uti aliquando pacem quam bellum malles, neu te optumum cum pessumo omnium Iugurtha miscendo conmaculares, simul nobis demeres acerbam necessitudinem, pariter te errantem atque illum sceleratissumum persequi.
And so Sulla, to whom Manlius yielded, not because of his years, but because of his eloquence, spoke briefly in this fashion: King Bocchus, we experience great joy since the gods have prompted such a great man as yourself to prefer at last peace to war, and not to sully yourself, the best of men, by association with Jugurtha, the very worst, and at the same time to relieve us of the bitter necessity of punishing equally you, though merely misguided, and that criminal.
