85 " You have commanded me to carry on the war against Jugurtha; a commission at which the nobility are highly offended. Consider with yourselves, I pray you, whether it would be a change for the better, if you were to send to this, or to any other such appointment, one of yonder crowd of nobles,Of yonder crowd of nobles] Ex illo globo nobilitatis. Illo, δεικτικῶς. a man of ancient family, of innumerable statues, and of no military experience; in order, forsooth, that in so important an office, and being ignorant of every thing connected with it, he may exhibit hurry and trepidation, and select one of the people to instruct him in his duty. For so it generally happens, that he whom you have chosen to direct, seeks another to direct him. I know some, my fellow-citizens, who, after they have been electedI know some—who after they have been elected, etc.] "At whom Marius directs this observation, it is impossible to tell. Gerlach, referring to Cic. Quæst. Acad. ii. 1, 2, thinks that Lucullus is meant. But if he supposes that Lucullus was present to the mind of Marius when he spoke, he is egregiously deceived, for Marius was forty years antecedent to Lucullus. It is possible, however, that Sallust, thinking of Lucullus when he wrote Marius's speech, may have fallen into an anachronism, and have attributed to Marius, whose character he had assumed, an observation which might justly have been made in his own day."Kritzius. consuls, have begun to read the acts of their ancestors, and the military precepts of the Greeks; persons who invert the order of things ;Persons who invert the order of things] Homines prœposteri. Men who do that last which should be done first. for though to discharge the duties of the office"For though to discharge the duties of the office, etc.] Nam gerere, quam fieri, tempore posterius, re atque usu prius est. With gerere is to be understood consulatum ; with fieri, consulem. This is imitated from Demosthenes, Olynth. iii.: Τὸ γὰρ πράττειν το "Acting is posterior in order to speaking and voting, but prior and superior in effect." is posterior, in point of time, to election, it is, in reality and practical importance, prior to it.
