Saepe audivi non de nihilo dici mendacem memorem esse oportere; at tibi, Aemiliane, non venit in mentem, priusquam ego Oeam venirem, te litteras etiam, uti nuberet, scripsisse ad filium eius Pontianum, qui tum adultus Romae agebat.
As I have often heard, not for nothing do they say a liar should have a good memory, but it has slipped your mind, Aemilianus, that before I came to Oea you had even written a letter to her son Pontianus, who was then an adult living in Rome, urging that she marry.
