2:42:02
What l do,
l do not for myself...
2:42:06
but for Rome.
2:42:08
Poor helpless Rome!
2:42:11
Let's go and hear more
about Rome from Crassus!
2:42:20
Did you truly believe
500 years of Rome...
2:42:22
could so easily be delivered
into the clutches of a mob?
2:42:29
Already the bodies
of 6,000 crucifiýed slaves...
2:42:33
line the Appian Way.
2:42:35
Tomorrow the last of their companions
will fiýght to the death...
2:42:38
in the temple of my fathers
as a sacrifiýce to them.
2:42:42
As those slaves have died,
so will your rabble...
2:42:46
if they falter one instant
in loyalty to the new order of affairs.
2:42:51
The enemies of the state
are known.
2:42:54
Arrests are in progress.
The prisons begin to fiýll.
2:42:58
ln every city and province, lists
of the disloyal have been compiled.
2:43:02
Tomorrow they will learn
the cost of their terrible folly...
2:43:07
their treason.
2:43:10
Where does my name appear...
2:43:12
on the list of disloyal enemies
of the state?
2:43:15
First.
2:43:19
Yet upon you l have
no desire for vengeance.
2:43:23
Your property
shall not be touched.
2:43:26
You will retain the rank
and title of Roman senator.
2:43:29
A house...
2:43:31
a farmhouse in Picenum
has been provided for your exile.
2:43:36
You may take your women
with you.
2:43:40
Why am l to be left
so conspicuously alive?
2:43:43
Your followers are
deluded enough to trust you.
2:43:47
l intend that you shall speak to them
tomorrow for their own good...
2:43:50
their peaceful
and profiýtable future.
2:43:53
From time to time thereafter,
l may fiýnd it useful...
2:43:56
to bring you back to Rome
to continue your duty to her...
2:43:59
to calm the envious spirit...
