Every man makes a god of his own desire
The hour is ripe, and yonder lies the way.
Roman, remember that you shall rule the nations by your authority, for this is to be your skill, to make peace the custom, to spare the conquered, and to wage war until the haughty are brought low.
Thus shall you go to the stars.
Consider what each soil will bear, and what each refuses
Yield thou not to adversity, but press on the more bravely.
