Next he wrote his <i>Epodes</i>, and in them composed invectives against men of a more advanced and more dishonourable age...He next wrote his book about the <i>Ars Poetica</i>, and in that instructed men of his own profession to write well...Later he added his book of <i>Satires</i>, in which he reproved those who had fallen a prey to various kinds of vices. Finally, he finished his oeuvre with the <i>Epistles</i>, and in them, following the method of a good farmer, he sowed the virtues where he had rooted out the vices." (cited by K.
