Exempla

Obsessos hinc fides, inde egestas inter decus ac flagitium distrahebant.”

The ties of loyalty on the one hand, and the necessities of famine on the other, kept the besieged wavering between the alternatives of glory and infamy.

“Quamdiū quisquam erit, quī tē dēfendere audeat, vīvēs, et vīvēs ita ut nunc vīvīs: multīs meīs et firmīs praesidiīs obsessus, nē commovēre tē contrā rem pūblicam possīs.”

As long as there is anyone who dares to defend you, you will live, and you will live the same way as you live now: detained by many strong guards of mine, so that you cannot move yourself against the republic.
