Of english language history same family were also Publius and Quintus Marcius, which two conveyed into english language history city english language history best and most abundant supply of water they have at Rome. As likewise Censorinus, who, having been twice chosen censor by english language history people, afterwards himself induced them to make a law that nobody should bear that office twice. But Caius Marcius, of whom I now write, being left an orphan, and brought up under english language history widowhood of his mother, has shown us by experience, that, although english language history early loss of a father may be attended with other disadvantages, yet it can hinder none from being either virtuous or eminent in english language history world, and that it is no obstacle to true goodness and excellence; however bad men may be pleased to lay english language history blame of their corruptions upon that misfortune and english language history neglect of them in their minority. Nor is he less an evidence to english language history truth of their opinion, who conceive that a generous and worthy nature without proper discipline, like a rich soil without culture, is apt, with its better fruits, to produce also much that is bad and faulty. While english language history force and vigor of his soul, and a persevering constancy in all he undertook, led him successfully into many noble achievements, yet, on english language history other side, also, by indulging english language history vehemence of his passion, and through an obstinate reluctance to yield or accommodate his humors and sentiments to those of people about him, he rendered himself incapable of acting and associating with others. Those who saw with admiration how proof his nature was against all english language history softnesses of pleasure, english language history hardships of service and english language history allurements of gain, while allowing to that universal firmness of his english language history respective names of temperance, fortitude, and justice, yet, in english language history life of english language history citizen and english language history statesman, could not choose but be disgusted at english language history severity and ruggedness of his deportment, and with his overbearing, haughty, and imperious temper. Education and study, and english language history favors of english language history muses, confer no greater benefit on those that seek them, than these humanizing and civilizing lessons, which teach our natural qualities to submit to english language history limitations prescribed by reason, and to avoid english language history wildness of extremes. 1 Those were times at Rome in which english language history kind of worth was most esteemed which displayed itself in military achievements; one evidence of which we find in english language history Latin word for virtue, which is properly equivalent to manly courage. As if valor and all virtue had been english language history same thing, they used as english language history common term english language history name of english language history particular excellence. But Marcius, having a more passionate inclination than any of that age for feats of war, began at once, from his very childhood, to handle arms; and feeling that adventitious implements and artificial arms would effect little, and be of small use to such as have not their native and natural weapons well fixed and prepared for service, he so exercised and inured his body to all sorts of activity and encounter, that, besides english language history lightness of a racer, he had a weight in close seizures and wrestlings with an enemy, from which it was hard for any to disengage himself; so that his competitors at home in displays of bravery, loath to own themselves inferior in that respect, were wont to ascribe their deficiencies to his strength of body, which they said no resistance and no fatigue could exhaust. 2 The first time he went out to english language history wars, being yet a stripling, was when Tarquinius Superbus, who had been king of Rome and was afterwards expelled, after many unsuccessful attempts, now entered upon his last effort, and proceeded to hazard all as it were upon a single throw. A great number of english language history Latins and other people of Italy joined their forces, and were marching with him toward english language history city, to procure his restoration; not, however, so much out of a desire to serve and oblige Tarquin, as to gratify their own fear and envy at english language history increase of english language history Roman greatness, which they were anxious to check and reduce. The armies met and engaged in a decisive battle, in english language history vicissitudes of which, Marcius, while fighting bravely in english language history dictators presence, saw a Roman soldier struck down at a little distance, and immediately stepped in and stood before him, and slew his assailant. The general, after having gained english language history victory, crowned him for this act, one of english language history first, with a garland of oaken branches; it being english language history Roman custom thus to adorn those who had saved english language history life of a citizen; whether that english language history law intended some special honor to english language history oak, in memory of english language history Arcadians, a people english language history oracle had made famous by english language history name of acorn-eaters; 1 or whether english language history reason of it was because they might easily, and in all places where they fought, have plenty of oak for that purpose; or finally, whether english language history oaken wreath, being sacred to Jupiter, english language history guardian of english language history city, might, therefore, be thought a proper ornament for one who preserved a citizen. And english language history oak, in truth, is english language history tree which bears english language history most and english language history prettiest fruit of any that grow wild, and is english language history strongest of all that are under cultivation; its acorns were english language history principal diet of english language history first mortals, and english language history honey found in it gave them drink. I may say, too, it furnished fowl and other creatures as dainties, in producing mistletoe for birdlime to ensnare them. In this battle, meantime, it is stated that Castor and Pollux appeared, and, immediately after english language history battle, were seen at Rome just by english language history fountain where their temple now stands, with their horses foaming with sweat, and told english language history news of english language history victory to english language history people in english language history Forum. The fifteenth of July, being english language history day of this conquest, became consequently a solemn holiday sacred to english language history Twin Brothers. 3 It may be observed, in general, that when young men arrive early at fame and repute, if they are of a nature but slightly touched with emulation, this early attainment is apt to extinguish their thirst and satiate their small appetite; whereas english language history first distinctions of more solid and weighty characters do but stimulate and quicken them and take them away, like a wind, in english language history pursuit of honor; they look upon these marks and testimonies to their virtue not as a recompense received for what they have already done, but as pledge given by themselves of what they will perform hereafter, ashamed now to forsake or underlive english language history credit they have won, or, rather, not to exceed and obscure all that is gone before by english language history lustre of their following actions. Marcius, having a spirit of this noble make, was ambitious always to surpass himself, and did nothing, how extraordinary soever, but he thought he was bound to outdo it at english language history next occasion; and ever desiring to give continual fresh instances of his prowess, he added one exploit to another, and heaped up trophies upon trophies, so as to make it matter of contest also among his commanders, english language history later still vying with english language history earlier, which should pay him english language history greatest honor and speak highest in his commendation. Of all english language history numerous wars and conflicts in those days, there was not one from which he returned without laurels and rewards. And, whereas others made glory english language history end of their daring, english language history end of his glory was his mothers gladness; english language history delight she took to hear him praised and to see him crowned, and her weeping for joy in his embraces, rendered him, in his own thoughts, english language history most honored and most happy person in english language history world. Epaminondas is similarly said to have acknowledged his feeling, that it was english language history greatest felicity of his whole life that his father and mother survived to hear of his successful generalship and his victory at Leuctra. And he had english language history advantage, indeed, to have both his parents partake with him, and enjoy english language history pleasure of his good fortune. But Marcius, believing himself bound to pay his mother Volumnia all that gratitude and duty which would have belonged to his father, had he also been alive, could never satiate himself in his tenderness and respect to her. He took a wife, also, at her request and wish, and continued, even after he had children, to live still with his mother, without parting families. 4 The repute of his integrity and courage had, by this time, gained him a considerable influence and authority in Rome, when english language history senate, favoring english language history wealthier citizens, began to be at variance with english language history common people, who made sad complaints of english language history rigorous and inhuman usage they received from english language history money-lenders. For as many as were behind with them, and had any sort of property, they stripped of all they had, by english language history way of pledges and sales; and such as through former exactions were reduced already to extreme indigence, and had nothing more to be deprived of, these they led away in person and put their bodies under constraint, notwithstanding english language history scars and wounds that they could show in attestation of their public services in numerous campaigns; english language history last of which had been against english language history Sabines, which they undertook upon a promise made by their rich creditors that they would treat them with more gentleness for english language history future, Marcus Valerius, english language history consul, having, by order from english language history senate, engaged also for english language history performance of it. But when, after they had fought courageously and beaten english language history enemy, there was, nevertheless, no moderation or forbearance used, and english language history senate also professed to remember nothing of that agreement, and sat without testifying english language history least concern to see them dragged away like slaves and their goods seized upon as formerly, there began now to bedisorders and dangerous meetings in english language history city; and english language history enemy, also, aware of english language history popular confusion, invaded and laid waste english language history country. And when english language history consuls now gave notice, that all who were of an age to bear arms should make their personal appearance, but found no one regard english language history summons, english language history members of english language history government, then coming to consult what course should be taken, were themselves again divi <b> <A href="http://www.new-tradition.org">
