Atque adeo summe miror quod unum a me pisciculum inspectum sciatis, cum iam plurimos, ubicumque locorum oblati sunt, aeque inspexerim, praesertim quod nihil ego clanculo sed omnia in propatulo ago, ut quivis vel extrarius arbiter adsistat, more hoc et instituto magistrorum meorum, qui aiunt hominem liberum et magnificum debere, si quo eat, in primori fronte animum gestare.
And yet it really surprises me that you know I examined one little fish, seeing that I have examined many before this just as much, wherever they came my way. This is mainly because I do nothing in secret, but everything in the open, so that any bystander, even a stranger, can be present; that was the custom and the practice of my teachers, who say that a man of free and lofty disposition should have his thoughts imprinted on his forehead wherever he goes.
