ante lucem ibat ad Vespasianum imperatorem (nam ille quoque noctibus utebatur), deinde ad officium sibi delegatum.
Before light he used to go the the emperor Vespasian (for he also made use of nights), then to the duty assigned to him.
reversus domum reliquum tempus studiis dabat.
Having returned home, he would give the remaining time over to studies.
saepe post cibum (qui veterum more interdiu levis et facilis erat) aestate, si quid otii erat, iacebat in sole, liber legebatur, adnotabat excerpebatque.
Often after food (which, according to the custom of his forefathers, was light and easy during the day) in the summer, if there was any leisure time, he used to lay in the sun, a book used to be read, and he would make notes and take extracts.
nihil enim legit quod non excerperet;
For he read nothing which he did not take extracts from;
dicere etiam solebat nullum librum esse tam malum ut non aliqua parte prodesset.
he was even accustomed to say that no book was so bad that it could not be of use in some part.
