Ea potestas per senatum more Romano magistratui maxuma permittitur, exercitum parare, bellum gerere, coercere omnibus modis socios atque civis, domi militiaeque imperium atque iudicium summum habere; aliter sine populi iussu nullius earum rerum consuli ius est.
That power is the greatest conferred by the senate upon a magistrate according to Roman usage, allowing him to raise an army, wage war, exert compulsion of all sorts upon allies and citizens, and exercise unlimited command and jurisdiction at home and in the field; otherwise the consul has no authority over such matters except by the order of the people.
