The proofs of found judgment in the writings of Tacitus are extremely numerous. From the choice of his subjects, he appears to have been perfectly acquainted with the nature and the extent of his own powers. Though he was considerably advanced in life before he began to write history, yet the closeness of his application enabled him to unfold that wisdom which his experience had furnished. In spite of an ardent love of fame, he avoided the rock upon which most authors, split, and wisely forbore to solicit the attention of the public, till he could for certain command its respect.
