As he had taken more care to transmit his virtues to his posterity, than to enrich them; and as, notwithstanding the frugality of his life, and the great offices he had borne, there was not found money enough in his house to defray the charges of his funeral, he was buried at the expense of the public. His poverty is a circumstance which Plutarch should have mentioned, because a funeral at the public charge was an honour sometimes paid to the rich.
