Ad haec Q. Marcius respondit, si quid ab senatu petere vellent, ab armis discedant, Romam supplices proficiscantur; ea mansuetudine atque misericordia senatum populi Romani semper fuisse, ut nemo umquam ab eo frustra auxilium petiverit.
To this appeal Quintus Mucius replied that if they wished to ask anything of the senate, let them lay down their arms and set out for Rome as suppliants; that the senate of the Roman people had always been so compassionate and merciful that no one ever sought assistance from it in vain.
