Divus Iulius seditionem exercitus verbo uno compescuit, Quirites vocando qui sacramentum eius detrectabant; divus Augustus vultu et aspectu Actiacas legiones exterruit: nos, ut nondum eosdem, ita ex illis ortos, si Hispaniae Suriaeve miles aspeenaretur, tamen mirum et indignum erat.
The deified Julius crushed the insurrection of an army by one word: they refused the soldiers oath, and he addressed them as Quirites. A look, a glance, from the deified Augustus, and the legions of Actium quailed. I myself am not yet as they, but I spring of their line, and if the garrisons of Spain or Syria were to flout me, it would still be a wonder and an infamy.
