What is the attitude of Horace towards the older Latin literature? Is he in sympathy with the antiquarianism of his day? GREEK.-PART I. (COMPOSITION.) Now perhaps some one might object to this that Socrates should not have taught his disciples politics before he had taught them discretion. But I perceive that all teachers prove to their disciples by their own examples how far they practise what they preach. And I know that Socrates showed by his conduct that he was honest and virtuous, and that if these men whom you are inclined to consider disloyal citizens had not associated with him they would never have known what the true meaning of loyalty to the State was. I know equally that so long as they enjoyed intercourse with Socrates their behaviour was beyond reproach, and if he is now removed from them by death we must beware how we refer to his teaching the errors which have, it is rather probable, arisen from the want of his presence and care. LATIN.-PART I. (COMPOSITION.) My lord, since you ask me seriously for my advice, I am bound to give you the best I can think of. I recommend you to send three hundred ships of war against the territory of Sparta. Near the shore there lies an island called Cythera, concerning which Chilon, a person of great wisdom among us, once said that it would be a great gain for the Spartans if it were to sink under the sea and never re-appear. He was always expecting it might become the base of operations for some such expedition as I suggest. If you thus bring the war to their own doors, you will have no need to fear that the Spartans will offer any opposition here while you are conquering the rest of Greece. If not, you may expect to fight a number of stubborn and bloody battles while attempting to cross the isthmus of Corinth. This was the advice given to Xerxes by Demaratus, but, unfortunately for himself, the king did not see fit to follow it. GREEK-PART II. (COMPOSITION.) Professor Tucker and Mr. Tubbs. I come amongst you not to stir up animosity between class and class: that is the charge brought against me by men who wish that one class may permanently rule over every other class. I come amongst you that we may deliberate on those great questions on which our success and our prosperity depend. You know, at least if you do not know it I will tell you, that I am no frequenter of courts. I have never sought for office or the emoluments of place. I have no craving for popularity. I think I have little of that which may be called the lust for fame. I am a citizen of a free country. I love U |
