My sphinx will be seven times
as gigantic as the one at Memphis.
1:08:08
And it will have my face.
1:08:11
You have reared a monument
to yourself with your poems.
1:08:15
lt saddens me to hear
you postponed your departure.
1:08:20
The gods wanted me to do it.
1:08:23
Vesta herself whispered in my ear,
''Do not go now''.
1:08:28
Why do we fear Vesta
more than other gods?
1:08:33
l would have collapsed with fear,
1:08:37
if someone hadn't supported me.
1:08:40
lt was l.
1:08:43
You? Thank you.
1:08:47
How is that girl...
with narrow hips?
1:08:52
l wager he's forgotten her.
1:08:55
l am tormented with boredom.
1:08:58
l stayed in Rome
but l despise it!
1:09:01
l shall go to Antium. l stifle
in those filthy streets and alleys.
1:09:06
lf a furious god levelled Rome
1:09:09
to the ground, l'd re-create
a far more magnificent city!
1:09:14
''lf a furious god
levelled it to the ground''?
1:09:18
- Yes! Why?
- Aren't you a god?
1:09:27
l am leaving for Antium.
1:09:30
You, little people,
can't understand my needs!
1:09:34
And you shall all
accompany me there.
1:09:39
Tigellinus, Vatinius,
Sextus, Aquillinus...
1:09:42
What scum. And they aim
to rule the world? No, l won't go.
1:09:47
l'm not responsible
for the world's ways.
1:09:51
But l advise you to go, and not to
jeopardise yourself and Lygia.
1:09:56
- l have to see her!
- Where is she?
1:09:59
- l don't know.
- Would she be wiser than you?
