Adjective. [B2]

Examples

“But if a man, who by nature is most generous, who employs the most temperate discipline, the most true philosophy, and the most auspicious fortune, should be thought worthy by divinity to associate with a dæmoniacal power, shall it appear wonderful and incredible that this man, so far as was sufficient for him, should deliver oracles ; not to the Athenians, by Jupiter, consulting about the Grecian evils ; nor to the Lacedæmonians interrogating about military expeditions ; nor to some one, who being about to contend in the Olympic games, should ask concerning victory ; nor to one enquiring in a court of justice if he should gain his cause ; nor to the lover of wealth, asking if he shall be rich ; nor to any other busily employed in enquiring about things of no worth, and for which men daily disturb the gods ?”
