Quintilian, Institutio Oratoria 8.3.73

lat quintilian phi001 perseus lat2

ne id, quod similitudinis gratia adscivimus, aut obscurum sit aut ignotum. debet enim, quod illustrandae alterius rei gratia assumitur, ipsum esse clarius eo quod illuminat. quare poetis quidem permittamus sane eiusmodi exempla: qualis ubi hibernam Lyciam Xanthique fluenta deserit aut Delum maternam invisit Apollo. Non idem oratorem decebit, ut occultis aperta demonstret.
