Nisi forte post mortem deos fingitis, et perierante Proculo deus Romulus, et Iuba Mauris volentibus deus est, et divi ceteri reges, qui consecrantur non ad fidem numinis, sed ad honorem emeritae potestatis.
But perhaps you imagine that men become gods after death; Romulus was made a god by the false oath of Proculus; Juba a god by the vote of the Mauritanians; and so the other kings deified by consecration due not so much to belief in their divinity, as to recognition of greatness and desert.
