He was even destitute of a sense of honor, which so frequently supplies the absence of public virtue; and as long as he was permitted to enjoy the possession of Italy, a victory of the barbarians, the loss of a province, or the rebellion of a general, seldom disturbed the tranquil course of his pleasures.
At length, a considerable army, stationed on the Upper Danube, invested with the Imperial purple their leader Aureolus; who, disdaining a confined and barren reign over the mountains of Rhætia, passed the Alps, occupied Milan, threatened Rome, and challenged Gallienus to dispute in the field the sovereignty of Italy.

 PARACELSUS
Theophrastus Philippus Aureolus Bombastus von Hohenheim (1493-1541), more commonly known as Paracelsus, is one of the most controversial figures in the history of Renaissance medicine (our word, "bombastic," comes from his name).
A medical reformer and prophetic writer, Paracelsus may have taken a medical degree at the University of Ferrara, though the record is ambiguous about whether he ever graduated.
For the better death is known, the greater is the value of medicine, a refuge which the wise seek.
