LXVI.  LENTULUS ENGAGES A TUTOR FOR HIS SON

A primis annis quidem Iulia ipsa filium suum docuerat, et Publius non solum [1]pure et Latine loqui poterat sed etiam commode legebat et scribebat.  Iam Ennium[2] aliosque poetas legerat.  Nunc vero Publius [3]duodecim annos habebat; itaque ei pater bonum magistrum, [4]virum omni doctrina et virtute ornatissimum, paravit, [5]qui Graeca, musicam, aliasque artis doceret. [6]Namque illis temporibus omnes fere gentes Graece loquebantur.  Cum Publio alii pueri, Lentuli amicorum filii,[7] discebant.  Nam saepe apud Romanos mos erat [8]non in ludum filios mittere sed domi per magistrum docere.  Cotidie discipuli cum magistro in peristylo[9] Marci domus sedebant.  Omnes pueri bullam auream, originis honestae signum, in collo gerebant, et omnes toga praetexta amicti erant, [10]quod nondum sedecim annos[11] nati sunt.
