Life, by whose healthful power increasedThe glorious name of Latium spreadTo where the sun illumes the eastFrom where he seeks his western bed.While Caesar rules, no civil strifeShall break our rest, nor violence rude,Nor rage, that whets the slaughtering knifeAnd plunges wretched towns in feud.The sons of Danube shall not scornThe Julian edicts; no, nor theyBy Tanais' distant river horn,Nor Persia, Scythia, or Cathay.
