"Reperire, apta atque reperta docendum
Digerere, atque suo quæque ordine ritè locare,
Durus uterque labor.
Ut plurimis proslmus, enitimur."
Vida, Lib. 3. Poetic.
Cicero. Octavo, original olive green blind-blocked cloth, spine dulled, page edges browned, early ownership signature on front free endpaper, a good solid copy nonetheless.
