PART II WEALTH
CHAPTER 73
SELF-CONFIDENCE BEFORE AN AUDIENCE
721. Behold the men that know how to weigh their words: they will also know how to order their discourse and will not fail before a wise audience.
722. Behold the man who can sustain his conclusions in the congregation of the learned: he will be called a scholar among scholars.
723. They are common, those that can brave death on the battle-field : but they are rare who can face an audience without trembling.
724. Place before the learned that which thou hast mastered : and that which thou knowest not, learn from them that excel therein.
725. Master thou the science of reasoning that thou mayest speak without fear in any assembly.
