Excerpt from The Letters of Cicero, Vol. 1 of 4: The Whole Extant Correspondence in Chronological Order; Translated Into English; B.

I have also refrained generally from attempting to represent his Greek by French, partly because I fear I should have done it ill, and partly because it is not in him as in an English writer who lards his sentences with French.
