Οὐ γὰρ ἀργίας ὤνιον ἡ ὑγίεια καὶ ἀπραξίας, ἅ γε δὴ μέγιστα κακῶν ταῖς νόσοις πρόσεστι, καὶ οὐδὲν διαφέρει τοῦ τὰ ὄμματα τῷ μὴ διαβλέπειν καὶ τὴν φωνὴν τῷ μὴ φθέγγεσθαι φυλάττοντος ὁ τὴν ὑγίειαν ἀχρηστίᾳ καὶ ἡσυχίᾳ σῴζειν οἰόμενος → For health is not to be purchased by idleness and inactivity, which are the greatest evils attendant on sickness, and the man who thinks to conserve his health by uselessness and ease does not differ from him who guards his eyes by not seeing, and his voice by not speaking

Sĭbylla,¹¹ æ, f. (σίβυλλα), [sens premier] femme qui a le don de prophétie,
1 nom appliqué à plusieurs prophétesses en qui les anciens reconnaissaient une inspiration divine, partant la vertu de rendre des oracles ; nott la Sibylle de Marpessos en Asie Mineure, près de l’Ida ; la Sibylle d’Érythrée en Ionie || pour les Romains il y avait la Sibylle de Tibur ( Tib. 2, 5, 69 ) ; mais c’était celle de Cumes, prêtresse d’Apollon, qui constituait le grand oracle national ; v. Virg. En. 6, 10 et passim ; Ov. M. 14, 104, etc. || sous le nom de la Sibylle circulaient des prédictions fort obscures, les vers sibyllins ; à Rome depuis Tarquin l’Ancien, il y en avait un recueil, les livres sibyllins, déposé au Capitole, et à sa garde était préposé un collège spécial de prêtres, d’abord des duumviri, puis des decemviri, enfin des quindecemviri : cf. Cic. Nat. 3, 5 ; Div. 1, 97 ; Liv. 38, 45, 3 ; Gell. 1, 19, pr. 1 ; Lact. Inst. 1, 6, 7
