Atqui nec opes inexpletam restinguere avaritiam queunt nec potestas sui compotem fecerit quem vitiosae libidines insolubilibus adstrictum retinent catenis, et collata improbis  dignitas non modo non efficit dignos, sed prodit potius et ostentat indignos.
Yet riches cannot get rid of avarice, for it is insatiable, nor can power give a man self-control if he is too firmly in the grip of sinful lusts; and a high office given to dishonest men not only does not make them worthy of it, but rather betrays and publishes their unworthiness.
