cum talis vir ob rem publicam in legatione mortem obierit, senatui placere Ser. Sulpicio statuam pedestrem aeneam in rostris ex huius ordinis sententia statui, circumque eam statuam locum ludis gladiatoribusque liberos posterosque eius quoquo versus pedes quinque habere, quod is ob rem publicam mortem obierit, eamque causam in basi inscribi;
since such a man has met his death while an envoy in the service of the Republic: that it is resolved by the senate that a statue, on foot and made of bronze, be erected to Servius Sulpicius on the Rostra by resolution of this body; further that his children and descendants be entitled to a space of five feet in any direction around the said statue to view games and gladiatorial shows, because he met his death in the service of the Republic, and that this reason be inscribed upon the pedestal;
