To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
^-Even J. Q. Adams, one of the most correct of modern critics, says (Lect. x.) that " the panegyric of Pompey in- terwoven by Cicero into his oration on the Manilian Law, that of Caesar in the oration for Marcellus, that of litera-^ ture in the oration for Archias, . . . and Cicero's invec- tives against Antony in his Philippics, against Piso, Cati- line, Clodius, and Verres in many others of his orations, 220 The Different Species of Oratory. are applications of the demonstrative manner in cer...tains- parts of deliberative or judicial discourses." An important distinction is here overlooked by Mr. Adams. Not all pas- sages praising or blaming a person belong to demonstrative oratory, but such only as are addressed to the unconcerned hearers, deoopoi, as Aristotle calls them — that is, to men who are not actually engaged in making up their minds about a case or a motion. We have on a former occasion explained digressions (252) as passages in which the orator departs for a while from his subject for some special pur- pose.
