and_o as_o much_o as_o he_o can_v the_o state_n into_o absolute_a ruin_n it_o will_v not_o then_o be_v from_o our_o purpose_n to_o search_v out_o the_o reason_n how_o it_o happen_v that_o many_o in_o their_o youth_n govern_v well_o and_o in_o their_o old_a age_n become_v cruel_a and_o throw_v themselves_o headlong_o into_o vice_n first_o then_o i_o say_v it_o happen_v by_o reason_n of_o age_n which_o as_o we_o have_v show_v before_o of_o its_o own_o nature_n cause_v contempt_n and_o the_o prince_n doubt_v this_o and_o think_v to_o remedy_v it_o with_o cruelty_n plunge_v himself_o in_o it_o to_o show_v there_o be_v valour_n in_o he_o so_o do_v tiberius_n who_o in_o his_o youth_n endeavour_v by_o all_o mean_n to_o hide_v his_o act_n of_o cruelty_n but_o in_o his_o old_a age_n change_v

but_o that_o he_o think_v this_o the_o only_a way_n to_o keep_v he_o from_o contempt_n whereupon_o if_o the_o senator_n have_v know_v this_o reason_n they_o will_v never_o have_v marvel_v to_o hear_v he_o recite_v his_o act_n &_o the_o death_n of_o his_o nephew_n drusus_n and_o although_o tacitus_n ascribe_v this_o to_o his_o great_a confidence_n where_o he_o say_v penetrabat_fw-la pavor_fw-la &_o
