1.21 Now is the floor clean, and the hands and cups of all; one sets twisted garlands on our heads, another hands us fragrant ointment on a salver. The mixing bowl stands ready, full of gladness, and there is more wine at hand that promises never to leave us in the lurch, soft and smelling of flowers in the jars. In the midst the frankincense sends up its holy scent, and there is cold water, sweet and clean. Brown loaves are set before us and a lordly table laden with cheese and rich honey. The altar in the midst is clustered round with flowers; song and revel fill the halls. But first it is meet that men should hymn the god with joy, with holy tales and pure words; then after libation and prayer made that we may have strength to do right—for that is in truth the first thing to do—no sin is it to drink as much as a man can take and get home without an attendant, so he be not stricken in years. And of all men is he to be praised who after drinking gives goodly proof of himself in the trial of skill, as memory and strength will serve him. Let him not sing of Titans and Giants—those fictions of the men of old—nor of turbulent civil broils in which is no good thing at all; but to give heedful reverence to the gods is ever good. 1.23 Now is the floor clean, and the hands and cups of all; one sets twisted garlands on our heads, another hands us fragrant ointment on a salver.

50.1 Idly (Licinius!) we our yesterday,' "
50.11 But o'er the bedstead wild in furious plight" 50.12 I tossed a-longing to behold the light,' "

No saving grace in you was evermore ready, 64.138 That to have pity on me vouchsafed your pitiless bosom? 64.139 Nevertheless not in past time such were the promises wordy 64.140 Lavished; nor such hopes to me the hapless were bidden; 64.141 But the glad married joys, the longed-for pleasures of wedlock. 64.142 All now empty and vain, by breath of the breezes bescattered! 64.143 Now, let woman no more trust her to man when he sweareth,' "64.144 Ne'er let her hope to find or truth or faith in his pleadings," '64.145 Who when lustful thought forelooks to somewhat attaining, 64.146 Never an oath they fear, shall spare no promise to promise. 64.147 Yet no sooner they sate all lewdness and lecherous fancy, 64.148 Nothing remember of words and reck they naught of fore-swearing. 64.149 Certes, you did I snatch from midmost whirlpool of ruin 64.150 Deadly, and held it cheap loss of a brother to suffer 64.151 Rather than fail your need (O false!) at hour the supremest. 64.152 Therefore my limbs are doomed to be torn of birds, and of feral 64.153 Prey, nor shall upheapt Earth afford a grave to my body.'

1.2 However, since I observe a considerable number of people giving ear to the reproaches that are laid against us by those who bear ill will to us, and will not believe what I have written concerning the antiquity of our nation, while they take it for a plain sign that our nation is of a late date, because they are not so much as vouchsafed a bare mention by the most famous historiographers among the Grecians,

3.260 Teach me, nymph, who serves Diana’s lake and grove: 3.261 Nymph, Egeria, wife to Numa, speak of your actions. 3.262 There is a lake in the vale of Aricia, ringed by dense woods, 3.263 And sacred to religion from ancient times. 3.264 Here Hippolytus hides, who was torn to piece 3.265 By his horses, and so no horse may enter the grove. 3.266 The long hedge is covered with hanging threads, 3.267 And many tablets witness the goddess’s merit. 3.268 often a woman whose prayer is answered, brow wreathed 3.269 With garlands, carries lighted torches from the City. 3.270 One with strong hands and swift feet rules there, 3.271 And each is later killed, as he himself killed before. 3.272 A pebble-filled stream flows down with fitful murmurs: 3.273 often I’ve drunk there, but in little draughts. 3.274 Egeria, goddess dear to the Camenae, supplies the water: 3.275 She who was wife and counsellor to Numa. 3.276 The Quirites were too prompt to take up arms, 3.277 And Numa quietened them with justice, and fear of the gods. 3.278 So laws were made, that the stronger might not take all, 3.279 And traditional rights were properly observed. 3.280 They left off being savages, justice superseded arms, 3.281 And citizens were ashamed to fight each other: 3.282 Those who had once been violent were transformed, on seeing 3.283 An altar, offering wine and salted meal on the warm hearths. 3.284 See, the father of the gods scatters red lightning through 3.285 The clouds, and clears the sky with showers of rain: 3.286 The forked flames never fell thicker: 3.287 The king was fearful, the people filled with terror. 3.288 The goddess said: ‘Don’t be so afraid! Lightning 3.289 Can be placated, and fierce Jupiter’s anger averted. 3.290 Picus and Faunus, each a deity native to Roman soil, 3.291 Can teach you the rites of expiation. But they won’t 3.292 Teach them unless compelled: so catch and bind them.’ 3.293 And she revealed the arts by which they could be caught. 3.294 There was a grove, dark with holm-oaks, below the Aventine, 3.295 At sight of which you would say: ‘There’s a god within.’ 3.296 The centre was grassy, and covered with green moss, 3.297 And a perennial stream of water trickled from the rock. 3.298 Faunus and Picus used to drink there alone. 3.299 Numa approached and sacrificed a sheep to the spring, 3.300 And set out cups filled with fragrant wine. 3.301 Then he hid with his people inside the cave. 3.302 The woodland spirits came to their usual spring, 3.303 And quenched their dry throats with draughts of wine. 3.304 Sleep succeeded wine: Numa emerged from the icy cave 3.305 And clasped the sleepers’ hands in tight shackles. 3.306 When sleep vanished, they fought and tried to burst 3.307 Their bonds, which grew tighter the more they struggled. 3.308 Then Numa spoke: ‘Gods of the sacred groves, if you accept 3.309 My thoughts were free of wickedness, forgive my actions: 3.310 And show me how the lightning may be averted.’ 3.311 So Numa: and, shaking his horns, so Faunus replied: 3.312 ‘You seek great things, that it’s not right for you to know 3.313 Through our admission: our powers have their limits. 3.314 We are rural gods who rule in the high mountains: 3.315 Jupiter has control of his own weapons. 3.316 You could never draw him from heaven by yourself, 3.317 But you may be able, by making use of our aid.’ 3.318 Faunus spoke these words: Picus too agreed, 3.319 ‘But remove our shackles,’ Picus added: 3.320 ‘Jupiter will arrive here, drawn by powerful art. 3.321 Cloudy Styx will be witness to my promise.’ 3.322 It’s wrong for men to know what the gods enacted when loosed 3.323 From the snare, or what spells they spoke, or by what art 3.324 They drew Jupiter from his realm above. My song will sing 3.325 of lawful things, such as a poet may speak with pious lips. 3.326 The drew you (eliciunt) from the sky, Jupiter, and later 3.327 Generations now worship you, by the name of Elicius. 3.328 It’s true that the crowns of the Aventine woods trembled, 3.329 And the earth sank under the weight of Jove. 3.330 The king’s heart shook, the blood fled from his body, 3.331 And the bristling hair stood up stiffly on his head. 3.332 When he regained his senses, he said: ‘King and father 3.333 To the high gods, if I have touched your offering 3.334 With pure hands, and if a pious tongue, too, asks for 3.335 What I seek, grant expiation from your lightning,’ 3.336 The god accepted his prayer, but hid the truth with deep 3.337 Ambiguities, and terrified him with confusing words. 3.338 ‘Sever a head,’ said the god: the king replied; ‘I will, 3.339 We’ll sever an onion’s, dug from my garden.’ 3.340 The god added: ‘of a man’: ‘You’ll have the hair,’ 3.341 Said the king. He demanded a life, Numa replied: ‘A fish’s’. 3.342 The god laughed and said: ‘Expiate my lightning like this, 3.343 O man who cannot be stopped from speaking with gods. 3.344 And when Apollo’s disc is full tomorrow, 3.345 I’ll give you sure pledges of empire.’ 3.346 He spoke, and was carried above the quaking sky, 3.347 In loud thunder, leaving Numa worshipping him. 3.348 The king returned joyfully, and told the Quirite 3.349 What had happened: they were slow to believe his words. 3.350 ‘It will surely be believed,’ he said, ‘if the event follow 3.351 My speech: listen, all you here, to what tomorrow brings. 3.352 When Apollo’s disc has lifted fully above the earth, 3.353 Jupiter will grant me sure pledges of empire.’ 3.354 The left, doubtful, considering it long to wait, 3.355 But setting their hopes on the following day. 3.356 The ground was soft at dawn, with a frost of dew: 3.357 When the crowd gathered at the king’s threshold. 3.358 He emerged, and sat in the midst on a maple wood throne. 3.359 Countless warriors stood around him in silence. 3.360 Phoebus had scarcely risen above the horizon: 3.361 Their anxious minds trembled with hope and fear. 3.362 The king stood, his head covered with a white cloth 3.363 Raising his hands, that the god now knew so well. 3.364 He spoke as follows: ‘The time is here for the promised gift, 3.365 Jupiter, make true the words of your pledge.’ 3.366 As he spoke, the sun’s full disc appeared, 3.367 And a loud crash came from the depths of the sky. 3.368 Three times the god thundered, and hurled his lightning, 3.369 From cloudless air, believe what I say, wonderful but true. 3.370 The sky began to split open at the zenith: 3.371 The crowd and its leader lifted their eyes. 3.372 Behold, a shield fell, trembling in the light breeze. 3.373 The sound of the crowd’s shouting reached the stars. 3.374 The king first sacrificed a heifer that had never known 3.375 The yoke, then raised the gift from the ground, 3.376 And called it ancile, because it was cut away (recisum) 3.377 All round, and there wasn’t a single angle to note. 3.378 Then, remembering the empire’s fate was involved, 3.379 He thought of a very cunning idea. 3.380 He ordered many shields cut in the same shape, 3.381 In order to confuse the eyes of any traitor. 3.382 Mamurius carried out the task: whether he was superior 3.383 In his craft or his character it would be hard to say. 3.384 Gracious Numa said to him: ‘Ask a reward for your work, 3.385 You’ll not ask in vain of one known for honesty.’ 3.386 He’d already given the Salii, named from their leaping (saltus), 3.387 Weapons: and words to be sung to a certain tune. 3.388 Mamurius replied: ‘Give me glory as my prize, 3.389 And let my name be sounded at the song’s end.’ 3.390 So the priests grant the reward promised for hi 3.391 Ancient work, and now call out ‘Mamurius’. 3.392 Girl if you’d marry, delay, however eager both are:'' None |

2.5.1 When Hercules heard that, he went to Tiryns and did as he was bid by Eurystheus. First, Eurystheus ordered him to bring the skin of the Nemean lion; now that was an invulnerable beast begotten by Typhon. On his way to attack the lion he came to Cleonae and lodged at the house of a day-laborer, Molorchus; and when his host would have offered a victim in sacrifice, Hercules told him to wait for thirty days, and then, if he had returned safe from the hunt, to sacrifice to Saviour Zeus, but if he were dead, to sacrifice to him as to a hero. And having come to Nemea and tracked the lion, he first shot an arrow at him, but when he perceived that the beast was invulnerable, he heaved up his club and made after him. And when the lion took refuge in a cave with two mouths, Hercules built up the one entrance and came in upon the beast through the other, and putting his arm round its neck held it tight till he had choked it; so laying it on his shoulders he carried it to Cleonae. And finding Molorchus on the last of the thirty days about to sacrifice the victim to him as to a dead man, he sacrificed to Saviour Zeus and brought the lion to Mycenae . Amazed at his manhood, Eurystheus forbade him thenceforth to enter the city, but ordered him to exhibit the fruits of his labours before the gates. They say, too, that in his fear he had a bronze jar made for himself to hide in under the earth, and that he sent his commands for the labours through a herald, Copreus, son of Pelops the Elean. This Copreus had killed Iphitus and fled to Mycenae, where he was purified by Eurystheus and took up his abode.'' None |

Consequently when someone once asked whether anyone was in there with Caesar, Vibius Crispus made the witty reply: "Not even a fly." Then he saluted his wife Domitia as Augusta. He had had a son by her in his second consulship, whom he lost the second year after he became emperor; he divorced her because of her love for the actor Paris, but could not bear the separation and soon took her back, alleging that the people demanded it.''

31.1 There was nothing however in which he was more ruinously prodigal than in building. He made a palace extending all the way from the Palatine to the Esquiline, which at first he called the House of Passage, but when it was burned shortly after its completion and rebuilt, the Golden House. Its size and splendour will be sufficiently indicated by the following details. Its vestibule was large enough to contain a colossal statue of the emperor a\xa0hundred and twenty feet high; and it was so extensive that it had a triple colonnade a\xa0mile long. There was a pond too, like a sea, surrounded with buildings to represent cities, besides tracts of country, varied by tilled fields, vineyards, pastures and woods, with great numbers of wild and domestic animals.''

4.3.3 To Arrius Antoninus. That you, like your ancestors of old, have been twice consul, that you have been proconsul of Asia with a record such as not more than one or two of your predecessors and successors have enjoyed - for your modesty is such that I do not like to say that no one has equalled you - that in purity of life, influence and age, you are the principal man of the State, - all these things inspire respect and give distinction, and yet I admire you even more in your retirement. For to season, as you do, all your strict uprightness with charm of manner equally striking, and to be such an agreeable companion as well as such a man of weight, that is no less difficult than it is desirable. Yet you succeed in so doing with wonderful sweetness both in your conversation and above all, when you set pen to paper. For when you talk, all the honey of Homer's old man eloquent * seems to flow from your tongue, and when you write, the bees seem to be busy pouring into every line their choicest essences and charging them with sweetness. That certainly was my impression when I recently read your Greek epigrams and iambics. ** What breadth of feeling they contain, what choice expressions, how graceful they are, how musical, how exact! I thought I was holding in my hands Callimachus or Herodas, or even a greater poet than these, if greater there be, yet neither of these two poets attempted or excelled in both these forms of verse. Is it possible for a Roman to write such Greek? I do not believe that even Athens has so pure an Attic touch. But why go on? I am jealous of the Greeks that you should have elected to write in their language, for it is easy to guess what choice work you could turn out in your mother-tongue, when you have produced such splendid results with an exotic language which has been transplanted into our midst. Farewell. 0 " "
6.22 To Tiro. A case has just been heard which is of great importance to all who are to govern provinces, and to all who entrust themselves too implicitly to their friends. Lustricius Bruttianus, after detecting Montanus Atticinus, his colleague, in a number of criminal offences, wrote a letter to Caesar. Atticinus thereupon added to his misdeeds by accusing the friend whom he had deceived. A judicial examination was granted, and I was one of the judges. Each party pleaded his own case, but in a summary fashion and without going into detail, a method of pleading by which the truth is easily got at. Bruttianus produced his will, which he declared was in the handwriting of Atticinus, for, by so doing, he proved the intimacy of their friendship, and the necessity he was under of complaining of one who had previously been so dear to him. He read a list of disgraceful offences, which were clearly proved, and when Atticinus found that he could not disprove them, he dealt with him in such a way as to appear a rascal when he was excusing himself, and a villain when he was accusing Bruttianus. For it transpired that he had bribed the slave of Bruttianus's secretary, intercepted the diaries and cut out passages therefrom, thus, by a piece of shameful wickedness, making capital out of his own offences against his friend. Caesar acted most nobly, for he at once put the question, not about Bruttianus, but Atticinus. The latter was found guilty and banished to an island, while Bruttianus received a well-earned tribute to his integrity, and he also won a reputation for the way he saw the matter through. For after he had cleared his good name as quickly as possible, he carried the war boldly into the enemy's camp and thus proved himself to be as resolute as he was honourable and upright. I have written you this letter to warn you, now that you have gone out to be a provincial governor, * to rely as far as possible on yourself, and to trust no one too implicitly. I also want you to know that if - which Heaven forbid - anyone should play you false, there is punishment ready waiting for the offender. However, be continually on your guard that the necessity may not arise, for though it is gratifying to get one's revenge, the gratification is no compensation for the annoyance of having been tricked. Farewell. "" None |

10.3.7 The accounts which are more remotely related, however, to the present subject, but are wrongly, on account of the identity of the names, brought into the same connection by the historians — I mean those accounts which, although they are called Curetan History and History of the Curetes, just as if they were the history of those Curetes who lived in Aitolia and Acaria, not only are different from that history, but are more like the accounts of the Satyri, Sileni, Bacchae, and Tityri; for the Curetes, like these, are called genii or ministers of gods by those who have handed down to us the Cretan and the Phrygian traditions, which are interwoven with certain sacred rites, some mystical, the others connected in part with the rearing of the child Zeus in Crete and in part with the orgies in honor of the Mother of the Gods which are celebrated in Phrygia and in the region of the Trojan Ida. But the variation in these accounts is so small that, whereas some represent the Corybantes, the Cabeiri, the Idaean Dactyli, and the Telchines as identical with the Curetes, others represent them as all kinsmen of one another and differentiate only certain small matters in which they differ in respect to one another; but, roughly speaking and in general, they represent them, one and all, as a kind of inspired people and as subject to Bacchic frenzy, and, in the guise of ministers, as inspiring terror at the celebration of the sacred rites by means of war-dances, accompanied by uproar and noise and cymbals and drums and arms, and also by flute and outcry; and consequently these rites are in a way regarded as having a common relationship, I mean these and those of the Samothracians and those in Lemnos and in several other places, because the divine ministers are called the same. However, every investigation of this kind pertains to theology, and is not foreign to the speculation of the philosopher.'' None |
