FORTVNAM insanam esse et caecam et brutam perhibent philosophi, saxoque instare in globoso praedicant uolubili: id quo saxum impulerit fors, eo cadere Fortunam autumant. insanam autem esse aiunt, quia atrox incerta instabilis siet: caecam ob eam rem esse iterant, quia nil cernat quo sese adplicet: 5 brutam, quia dignum atque indignum nequeat internoscere. sunt autem alii philosophi, qui contra Fortuna negant ullam miseriam esse, temeritatem esse omnia autumant. id magis ueri simile esse usus reapse experiundo edocet: uelut Orestes modo fuit rex, factust mendicus modo.
Fortune 1912
