It is so common for men to change from good to bad, or from bad to worse, with the change of their Conditions from bad to good, or from good to better, and when they are lifted up in Honour, to be elevated in Mind too, that Titus Vespasian is the one Emperour (at least within my present memory) who was moulded by his Empire from bad to better; from having been both a proud and a cruel Subject, to his being both a mild and an humble Soveraign. Of most other Emperours it may be said, (as 'twas by Tacitus but of one, ) Imperio digni, nisi imperâssent. |
