docuitque in Carinis ad Telluris, in qua regione Pompeiorum domus fuerat, ac tanto amore erga patroni memoriam exstitit, ut Sallustium historicum, quod eum oris probi, animo inverecundo scripsisset, acerbissima satura laceraverit, lastaurum et lurconem et nebulonem popinonemque appellans, et vita scriptisque monstrosum, praeterea priscorum Catonis verborum ineruditissimum furem.
teaching in the Carinae, near the temple of Tellus, the quarter of the city in which the house of the Pompeys was formerly situated. He was so devoted to his patrons memory that, because the historian Sallust wrote that Pompey had an honest face but a shameless character, he tore Sallust to pieces in a biting satire, calling him a debauchee, a gourmandizer, a spendthrift, and a tippler, a man whose life and writings were monstrous, and who was besides an ignorant pilferer of the archaic language of Cato.
