Mihi vero, patres conscripti, iam etiam optanda mors est, perfuncto rebus eis quas adeptus sum quasque gessi, duo modo haec opto, unum ut moriens populum Romanum liberum relinquam'hoc mihi maius ab dis immortalibus dari nihil potest'alterum ut ita cuique eveniat ut de re publica quisque mereatur.
For me, Members of the Senate, death is now something even to be wished for after the offices I have attained and the services I have rendered. I make only these two prayers: the first, that when I die, I leave the Roman people free'the immortal gods can grant me no greater favor than this'the second, that each mans fate match his deserts as a patriot.
