Examples

“Sed tū in rē mīlitārī multō es cautior quam in advocātiōnibus, quī neque in Ōceanō natāre voluerīs studiōsissimus homō natandī neque spectāre essedāriōs, quem anteā nē andabatā quidem dēfraudāre poterāmus. Sed iam satis iocātī sumus.”

But you're much more cautious in military concerns than in counsel, who neither wished to swim in the Ocean, a man so keen on swimming, nor to watch those charioteers, whom we could not deprive before even of the enjoyment of a blindfolded gladiator. But we've already joked enough.
