“Neque audiendi sunt qui numero⟳ finiunt, quotiens aliquis perfricandus sit: id enim ex viribus hominis colligendum est; et si is perinfirmus est, potest satis esse quinquagies, si robustior, potest ducenties esse faciendum; inter utrumque deinde, prout vires sunt.”

Neither should we listen to those who would fix numerically how many times a patient is to be stroked; for that is to be regulated by his strength; and if he is very infirm fifty strokes may possibly be enough, if more robust possibly two hundred may be made; then an intermediate number according to his strength.

“[6.10] Universae magnitudinem Aufidius quinquagiens centena milia prodidit, Claudius Caesar longitudinem a Dascusa ad confinium Caspii maris |XIII| p., latitudinem dimidium eius Tigranocerta ad Hiberiam. [7.25] Idem signis conlatis bis et quinquagiens dimicavit, solus M. Marcellum transgressus, qui undequadragiens dimicavit.”
