egone aspera ponam umquam in Romanos odia? aut mansuescere corda nostra sinam? parcamque viro, quem terra crearit Itala? tum manes inimicos sede repellat aeterna socioque abigat me frater Averno.
Shall I ever forget the fierce hatred that I bear to Rome? Or shall I suffer my heart to be softened? Shall I spare a single son of Italy? Then may my brother keep my unloved spirit far from his eternal abode and drive me away from communion with him in Avernus!
