ac ni Valerii subvenisset eloquentia, spes tanti imperii in ipso paene ortu suo corruisset: is namque populum nova et insolita libertate temere gaudentem oratione ad meliora et saniora consilia revocatum senatui subiecit, id est urbem urbi iunxit.
And if Valerius eloquence had not come to the rescue, the hope of so great an empire would have collapsed almost at birth. For by a speech he brought the people, which was rashly exulting in its new, unaccustomed freedom, back to better and saner counsels and subjected it to the senate; that is, he joined Rome to Rome.
