Publisher's Synopsis
Excerpt from Horace, Quintus Horatius Flaccus, "Crescam Laude Recens" The Letters of Horace Presented to Modern Readers
Such was Horace, an author of much civility; and (if any one among the heathen can be) the best master both of virtue and wisdom; an excellent and true judge upon cause and reason; not because he thought so, but because he knew so, out of use and experience.
