[29] 10 quod si illis meis praesidiis forte invides, et si ea tibi regia videntur quod omnes boni omnium generum atque ordinum suam salutem cum mea coniungunt, consolare te quod omnium mentes improborum mihi uni maxime sunt infensae et adversae; qui me non modo¹ idcirco oderunt quod eorum conatus impios et furorem consceleratum repressi, sed eo etiam magis² quod nihil iam³ se simile me vivo conari posse arbitrantur.
