all_o good_a man_n a_o great_a concord_n a_o vast_a multitude_n and_o mighty_a military_a force_n last_o of_o all_o that_o the_o immortal_a god_n be_v ever_o ready_a to_o help_v this_o invincible_a people_n this_o most_o renown_a empire_n this_o most_o famous_a city_n against_o all_o the_o violence_n of_o wickedness_n but_o if_o they_o have_v accomplish_v what_o with_o the_o great_a madness_n they_o desire_v can_v they_o hope_v in_o the_o ash_n of_o the_o city_n and_o the_o blood_n of_o the_o citizen_n which_o with_o impious_a and_o cruel_a affection_n they_o thirst_v after_o that_o they_o shall_v be_v consul_n or_o dictator_n or_o king_n do_v they_o not_o see_v they_o desire_v that_o which_o if_o obtain_v must_v necessary_o give_v the_o reward_n to_o some_o vagabond_n or_o gladiator_n the_o three_o sort_n be_v of_o those_o who_o age_n be_v almost_o spend_v yet_o strong_a in_o experience_n of_o who_o be_v manlius_n to_o who_o catiline_n now_o succeed_v these_o man_n be_v of_o those_o colony_n which_o silvius_n plant_v at_o faesulae_n which_o i_o apprehend_v to_o have_v be_v of_o the_o best_a citizen_n and_o most_o valiant_a man_n but_o such_o who_o exalt_v with_o sudden_a and_o unexpected_a riches_n have_v live_v sumptuous_o and_o extravagant_o they_o build_v as_o if_o they_o shall_v be_v ever_o happy_a and_o whilst_o they_o delight_v themselves_o with_o their_o manor_n their_o coach_n their_o great_a retinue_n their_o splendid_a feast_n they_o fall_v into_o such_o debt_n as_o if_o ever_o they_o will_v get_v out_o of_o silvius_n must_v be_v raise_v from_o the_o dead_a these_o have_v draw_v some_o other_o country_n mean_v needy_a fellow_n into_o the_o same_o hope_n of_o their_o old_a rapine_n both_o of_o which_o o_o quirite_n i_o reckon_v as_o robber_n and_o plunderer_n but_o i_o admonish_v they_o to_o leave_v off_o be_v mad_a and_o fancy_v sequestration_n and_o dictatorship_n for_o the_o scar_n of_o those_o time_n be_v so_o deep_o imprint_v upon_o the_o citizen_n that_o not_o only_a man_n but_o even_o beast_n will_v be_v unwilling_a to_o undergo_v they_o again_o 10._o the_o four_o sort_n be_v very_o various_a mix_v and_o turbulent_a who_o

old_a debt_n who_o be_v weary_v out_o with_o suit_n judgement_n prosecution_n drive_v out_o of_o the_o city_n and_o country_n be_v retire_v into_o that_o rendezvouz_n who_o i_o do_v not_o look_v so_o much_o upon_o to_o be_v bold_a soldier_n as_o idle_a cheat_n if_o these_o can_v stand_v even_o let_v they_o fall_v but_o so_o fall_v that_o neither_o the_o city_n nor_o even_o their_o next_o neighbour_n feel_v they_o but_o i_o do_v not_o understand_v this_o why_o if_o they_o can_v live_v honest_o they_o must_v needs_o desire_v to_o perish_v so_o base_o or_o why_o they_o shall_v think_v it_o a_o less_o trouble_n to_o destroy_v so_o many_o with_o they_o than_o to_o perish_v alone_o the_o five_o sort_n be_v of_o traitor_n assassin_n and_o of_o all_o the_o most_o villainous_a who_o i_o do_v not_o recall_v from_o catiline_n nor_o indeed_o can_v they_o ever_o be_v part_v from_o he_o but_o let_v they_o perish_v in_o the_o treason_n for_o they_o be_v too_o many_o for_o a_o prison_n to_o

unless_o these_o be_v drive_v out_o and_o destroy_v although_o catiline_n do_v perish_v yet_o know_v there_o will_v remain_v a_o catilinarian_a seminary_n in_o the_o commonwealth_n but_o what_o will_v those_o wretch_n do_v will_v they_o carry_v their_o wench_n along_o with_o they_o into_o the_o tent_n or_o can_v they_o be_v without_o they_o these_o long_a cold_a night_n how_o will_v they_o be_v
