Tenet igitur res publica Macedoniam, tenet Illyricum, tuetur Graeciam: nostrae sunt legiones, nostra levis armatura, noster equitatus, maximeque noster est Brutus semperque noster, cum sua excellentissima virtute rei publicae natus tum fato quodam paterni maternique generis et nominis.
Thus the Republic holds Macedonia, it holds Illyricum, and it watches over Greece: the legions are ours, the light-armed units are ours, the cavalry is ours, and most of all Brutus is ours, always ours, born for the benefit of the Republic not only owing to his own outstanding courage but also to a certain fate attached to the family and name of both his father and mother.
