Body of Brief
PART I: OVERVIEW

[1] Lorem ipsum dolor sit amet, consectetur adipiscing elit. Omnis enim est natura diligens sui. Duo Reges: constructio interrete. Videmusne ut pueri ne verberibus quidem a contemplandis rebus perquirendisque deterreantur? Quid censes in Latino fore? Quid, quod res alia tota est? Quodcumque in mentem incideret, et quodcumque tamquam occurreret. Quodsi ipsam honestatem undique pertectam atque absolutam. Ut optime, secundum naturam affectum esse possit.

[2] Quaesita enim virtus est, non quae relinqueret naturam, sed quae tueretur. Claudii libidini, qui tum erat summo ne imperio, dederetur. Graece donan, Latine voluptatem vocant. Tertium autem omnibus aut maximis rebus iis, quae secundum naturam sint, fruentem vivere. Recte dicis; Qua ex cognitione facilior facta est investigatio rerum occultissimarum. Quia dolori non voluptas contraria est, sed doloris privatio:

Quam illa ardentis amores excitaret sui! Cur tandem? Cum audissem Antiochum, Brute, ut solebam, cum M. Quamvis enim depravatae non sint, pravae tamen esse possunt. Deinde qui fit, ut ego nesciam, sciant omnes, quicumque Epicurei esse voluerunt?

Illis videtur, qui illud non dubitant bonum dicere -; Fortitudinis quaedam praecepta sunt ac paene leges, quae effeminari virum vetant in dolore. Videamus animi partes, quarum est conspectus illustrior; Cur igitur, cum de re conveniat, non malumus usitate loqui? Ut pulsi recurrant? Cur id non ita fit? Utinam quidem dicerent alium alio beatiorem! Iam ruinas videres. A mene tu?

[3] Graece donan, Latine voluptatem vocant. Tertium autem omnibus aut maximis rebus iis, quae secundum naturam sint, fruentem vivere. Recte dicis; Qua ex cognitione facilior facta est investigatio rerum
