	Persius - LoveToKnow 1911
		At the age of twelve Persius came to Rome, where he was taught by Remmius Palaemon and the rhetor Verginius Flavus.
		In his boyhood Persius wrote a tragedy dealing with an episode of Roman history, and a work, the title of which is rendered uncertain by corruption in our MSS.
		Persius strikes the highest note that Roman satire reached; in earnestness and moral purpose rising far superior to the political rancour or good natured persiflage of his predecessors and the rhetorical indignation of Juvenal, he seems a forerunner of the great Christian Apologists.

		Still in early youth he became the friend of the lyric poet Caesius Bassus, whilst with Thrasea Paetus (whose wife Arria was a relative) he had a close friendship of ten years' duration and shared some travels.
		The only case in which it seems to conflict with the Satires themselves is in its statement as to the death of Persius's father.
		The sensitive, home-bred nature of Persius shows itself perhaps also in his frequent references to ridicule, whether of great men by street gamins or of the cultured by Philistines.
