“Vīs tū cōgitāre istum quem servum tuum vocās ex īsdem sēminibus ortum, eōdem fruī caelō, aequē spīrāre, aequē vīvere, aequē morī! tam tū illum vidēre ingenuum potes quam ille tē servum.”

You want to consider that the one whom you call your slave has arisen from the same seed, to obtain wishes from the same heaven, equally to breathe, equally to live, equally to die! So to you he can seem freeborn just as he [can see] you [as] a slave.
