[All]: Lat. parallels: Dist. IV, 23, 27 – cf. st. 127; (Dist. IV, 48) Cum tibi contingerit studio cognoscere multa, / fac discas multa, vita nescire doceri ‘If you come to know many things through study, see to it that you learn many things, from life you will not know to learn’. The topic of this st. occurs quite often in the Disticha, so it is difficult to determine which distich the translation is based on. In all 3 mss, the st. is included after st. 143, translating Dist. IV, 43, and before 147.
