MDCCCXCII Hora XI
Hominibus insita, ut ita dicam, verecundia rerum per saecula memoriae traditarum saepissime fuit im pedimento, quominus viri docti, qui antiquitatis mo munenta perpenderent et reliquias, quid genuinum putandum esset an fictum, recte intellegerent. Sed cum passim viderent difficultates ipsorum credulitate ortas, res traditas alias aliis repugnantes plerumque ita componere conati sunt, ut conieoturis arteque interpretandi adhibitis soriptorum verbis succurrerent. Velut in hac quoque quaestione, quam de documentis apud oratores Atticos exstantibus renovaturus sum, per complura saecula homines docti, priusquam docu menta spuria esse intellexissent, multa subtilius quam verius excogitaverunt, quibus tolli suspicionem puta rent, ita tamen, ut alter alterum statim refutaret, nemo fere, quid suae ipsius sententiae deesset ad fidem faciendam, nesciret.
