:17:00
Because you pretend to love Caesar
whom you threatened a while ago.
:17:05
How can you permit
anyone to think such a thing,
:17:09
lest utter it aloud
in your presence?
:17:15
Punish him.
:17:17
This is how you pay me
for my friendship?
:17:21
- l say what my love dictates.
- Punish him.
:17:26
You want me to punish him?
:17:29
But he is my friend,
:17:32
and though he's breaking my heart,
:17:34
let him know this heart
:17:37
can only...
:17:40
forgive.
:17:58
- Vinicius?
- Yes, my lord.
:18:00
- And maybe Petronius, too?
- l admire your insight.
:18:05
That is very probable.
:18:08
Now l understand
why he defended Christians.
:18:15
Petronius, a Christian!
An enemy of life and pleasures?
:18:20
Don't be fools!
:18:22
Don't expect me to believe that,
or l'll stop believing anything.
:18:26
But the noble Vinicius
became a Christian, my lord.
:18:29
Pomponia is a convert...
and her little Aulus...
:18:33
and Lygia, and Vinicius.
My lord, avenge
:18:37
my sufferings,
:18:38
and l shall denounce Peter the Apostle,
and Linus, and Glaucus, and Crispus.
:18:44
l'll show you hundreds,
thousands...
:18:47
their houses of prayer,
cemeteries, everything!
:18:51
- My lord, avenge our child.
- Hurry.
:18:55
Don't give Vinicius time
to hide Lygia away.
:18:59
l'll give you ten men, go.
