Quotus enim quisque, cuius tu non ante commilito quam imperator? Inde est, quod prope omnes nomine adpellas, quod singulorum fortia facta commemoras, nec habent adnumeranda tibi pro re publica vulnera, quibus statim laudator et testis contigisti.
How many do you suppose there are who did not know you as comrade in arms before you were their emperor? Thus you can call nearly all your soldiers by name, and know the deeds of bravery of each one, while they need not recount the wounds they received in their countrys service, since you were there to witness and applaud.
