1 1, I | CITIES, AND WHAT WAS THAT OF ROME~Those who read what the
2 1, I | beginning of the City of Rome was, and of her Law-givers
3 1, I | therefore, the building of Rome if he should take Eneas
4 1, II | according to events, as Rome did. So that a Republic
5 1, II | institutions of the City of Rome and what events brought
6 1, II | Sparta.~But let us come to Rome, which, notwithstanding
7 1, II | do, chance did. For, if Rome did not attain top fortune,
8 1, II | of King] was driven from Rome, the royal power was not;
9 1, III | TRIBUNES OF THE PLEBS IN ROME, WHICH MADE THE REPUBLIC
10 1, III | discovered. It seemed that in Rome there was a very great harmony
11 1, IV | tumults that occurred in Rome from the death of the Tarquins
12 1, IV | opinions of many who say that Rome was a tumultuous Republic
13 1, IV | chief causes for keeping Rome free, and that they paid
14 1, IV | seen to have happened in Rome, for from Tarquin to the
15 1, IV | hundred years, the tumults of Rome rarely brought forth exiles,
16 1, IV | the Plebs departing from Rome, all of which [things] alarm
17 1, IV | among which the City of Rome had this method, that when
18 1, V | the Nobles, but that of Rome was placed in the hands
19 1, V | longer life than that of Rome: And to come to the reasons,
20 1, V | an example this selfsame Rome, where the Tribunes of the
21 1, V | of Marius and the ruin of Rome.~And truly whoever should
22 1, V | to create an Empire, as Rome, or of one which is satisfied
23 1, V | for it to do everything as Rome did; in the second, it can
24 1, V | formed in Capua against Rome, they were also given authority
25 1, V | able to search out who in Rome from ambition and by extraordinary
26 1, V | spread the word throughout Rome that it was not the Nobles
27 1, VI | ESTABLISH A GOVERNMENT IN ROME WHICH COULD ELIMINATE THE
28 1, VI | liberty, some might wish that Rome had done the great things
29 1, VI | consideration to see whether in Rome there could have been a
30 1, VI | have been introduced in Rome.~For example, there is Sparta
31 1, VI | that the legislators of Rome do one of two things in
32 1, VI | things in desiring that Rome be as quiet as the above
33 1, VI | which she achieved. So that Rome wanting to remove the causes
34 1, VI | entirely clear of suspicion. Rome could therefore, like Sparta,
35 1, VI | dominion and power as did Rome, or whether it should remain
36 1, VI | necessary to establish it as Rome, and to give place to tumults
37 1, VII | Tribunes who defended them, and Rome [as happened] experiencing
38 1, VII | were so well organized in Rome that in so many discussions
39 1, VIII | when he was liberating [Rome] from the oppression of
40 1, VIII | much for the welfare of Rome by having saved the Campidoglio [
41 1, VIII | said] was well organized in Rome, and has always been poorly
42 1, VIII | City of Florence. And as in Rome this institution did much
43 1, IX | was seen at that time when Rome became free after the driving
44 1, X | Emperors merited who, after Rome became an Empire, lived
45 1, X | and sacked: He will see Rome burned, the Capitol of its
46 1, X | cruelties take place in Rome, and nobility, riches, honors,
47 1, X | very well what obligations Rome, Italy, and the world owed
48 1, XI | RELIGIONS OF THE ROMANS~Although Rome had Romulus as its original
49 1, XI | actions of the people of Rome [taken] all together, and
50 1, XI | discussed as to which Prince Rome should be more obligated,
51 1, XII | many of these miracles in Rome, and among others was that [
52 1, XII | saying “WILL YOU COME TO ROME?”, it appeared to some that
53 1, XII | nearer to the Church of Rome, the head of our Religion,
54 1, XII | depend on the Church of Rome, I want to discuss those
55 1, XII | Italians owe to the Church of Rome, and to none others. And
56 1, XIII | Gods were angered because Rome had ill-used the majesty
57 1, XIII | and] wanted to return to Rome, the Romans insinuated that
58 1, XIII | Many tumults had arisen in Rome caused by Terentillus the
59 1, XIII | name, should have come to Rome and attacked her; and the
60 1, XIII | commanded them to go out from Rome and go against the Volscians,
61 1, XIII | Plebs for war outside [of Rome]. And thus Religion enabled
62 1, XIV | which he was condemned at Rome, and Papirus honored, not
63 1, XV | institutions of the Republic of Rome, it has appeared to me proper
64 1, XVI | accident acquired it, as Rome acquired it after driving
65 1, XVI | found valid remedies, in Rome or elsewhere, to maintain
66 1, XVII | should be eliminated in Rome, or [else] that Rome would
67 1, XVII | in Rome, or [else] that Rome would in a very short time
68 1, XVII | to be seen than that of Rome, which after the Tarquins
69 1, XVII | them should ever reign in Rome; but in the time of the
70 1, XVII | although this example of Rome is to be preferred to any
71 1, XVII | a great good fortune for Rome that no sooner had these
72 1, XVII | tumults which took place in Rome (men having good intentions) [
73 1, XVIII | Government was established in Rome, or rather the State, and
74 1, XVIII | necessary, therefore, if Rome wanted to maintain herself
75 1, XIX | the first three Kings of Rome, it will be seen that Rome
76 1, XIX | Rome, it will be seen that Rome was favored by the greatest
77 1, XIX | For it was necessary in Rome that in the beginning there
78 1, XIX | Pompilius to be able to rule Rome with the arts of peace;
79 1, XIX | if he wanted to maintain Rome he needed to turn to war
80 1, XIX | it can be though that, if Rome had not by chance had as
81 1, XX | EXPANSIONS ARE GREAT~After Rome had driven out her Kings,
82 1, XX | whose virtu and fortune Rome had benefited from time
83 1, XXI | men.3 For Tullus, after Rome had been at peace forty
84 1, XXII | CURATII~Tullus, King of Rome, and Metius, King of Alba,
85 1, XXII | returned as conqueror to Rome, meeting his sister who
86 1, XXIV | as is seen was done by Rome. And although a Republic
87 1, XXIV | that was then current in Rome) was great and of quality; [
88 1, XXIV | to raise up sedition in Rome, and seeking to gain over
89 1, XXV | annual sacrifice was made in Rome, which could not be done
90 1, XXVIII | but he will find less in Rome than in Athens, and perhaps
91 1, XXVIII | reasons for this, speaking of Rome and Athens, I believe it
92 1, XXVIII | did the Athenians. For in Rome (discussing the time from
93 1, XXVIII | Athens for this, nor praise Rome, but he will blame only
94 1, XXVIII | carefully, will see that if Rome had had her liberty taken
95 1, XXVIII | away as it was in Athens, Rome would not have been any
96 1, XXVIII | was found in liberating Rome) was sent into exile for
97 1, XXVIII | judged (seeing how severe Rome was in these two suspicions)
98 1, XXIX | Vitellius who reigned in Rome, and with the greatest virtu
99 1, XXIX | of Vitellius and occupied Rome, so that through the virtu
100 1, XXIX | reduced his authority in Rome to nothing: so that Antonius
101 1, XXIX | tyranny, as happened in Rome under Caesar who took by
102 1, XXIX | reasons discussed above, Rome was the least ungrateful,
103 1, XXIX | reason, the Magistrates of Rome feared his authority, which
104 1, XXIX | something unheard of in Rome. And his manner of living
105 1, XXIX | So that if the people of Rome in this case followed the
106 1, XXX | there always sprung up in Rome in every age so many men
107 1, XXX | ungrateful ought to govern as Rome did, and a Citizen who wants
108 1, XXXI | with a capital penalty, it [Rome] punished them with a monetary
109 1, XXXI | him, and on his return to Rome, the whole Senatorial order
110 1, XXXI | thanked him for returning to Rome and for not having despaired
111 1, XXXII | Porsenna coming to assault Rome in order to restore thy
112 1, XXXIII | tribes] to conspire against Rome: whence the Romans among
113 1, XXXIII | This same thing happened in Rome to Caesar who was favored
114 1, XXXIII | happen to the neighbors of Rome, to whom after Rome had
115 1, XXXIII | neighbors of Rome, to whom after Rome had grown so much in power,
116 1, XXXIV | the cause of tyranny in Rome; alleging that the first
117 1, XXXIV | of Dictator that placed Rome in servitude, but it was
118 1, XXXIV | Dictator did not exist in Rome, they would have taken another;
119 1, XXXIV | way. As is seen ensued in Rome where in so much passage
120 1, XXXIV | incident should arise that Rome would have need of this
121 1, XXXIV | conclude, that the neighbors of Rome seeking to oppress her,

124 1, XXXVI | and authority. And if in Rome there had been the same
125 1, XXXVII | AGRARIAN LAW BROUGHT FORTH IN ROME; AND HOW TROUBLESOME IT
126 1, XXXVII | that law in the City of Rome, which either was now drawn
127 1, XXXVII | could never be spoken of in Rome without that City going
128 1, XXXVII | law; a Colony drawn from Rome was sent to that place,
129 1, XXXVII | was difficult to find in Rome one who would give his name
130 1, XXXVII | to defend the things in Rome than to possess them in
131 1, XXXVII | fields that the enemies of Rome possessed being far removed
132 1, XXXVII | wholly ruined the liberty of Rome; for it found the power
133 1, XXXVII | became the first Tyrant in Rome, so that City was never
134 1, XXXVII | showed that the enmity in Rome between the Senate and the
135 1, XXXVII | the Plebs should maintain Rome free, because it gave rise

160 1, XLVI | appeared reasonable that Rome would for some time become

162 1, XLVII | Capua and the Senate in Rome. I believe also that it

178 1, LIII | plazas and public places of Rome to rout Hannibal anytime
179 1, LIII | almost caused the ruin of Rome. I want to cite on this
180 1, LV | of Naples, the Lands of Rome, the Romagna, and Lombardy,
181 1, LVI | of the French [Gauls] to Rome, that is, how one Marcus
182 1, LVI | the Gauls were coming to Rome. The cause of this I believe
183 1, LVII | should return to inhabit Rome. Which edict at first was
184 1, LVII | Virginius, they departed from Rome, and to save themselves

190 1, LX | to accomplish that which Rome did, cannot make this distinction.~
191 1, LX | should avail itself, as Rome availed itself of Valerius
192 2 | there came to Italy and Rome: and if after the Roman
193 2, I | has made the progress that Rome had, then I note that no
194 2, I | to make such conquests as Rome. For it was the virtu of

198 2, III | CHAPTER III~ROME BECAME A GREAT CITY BY RUINING
199 2, III | interea Roma Albae ruinis. [Rome grew on the ruins of Alba]
200 2, III | was so greatly observed by Rome, that in the time of the
201 2, III | time of the sixth King of Rome, that there lived there
202 2, III | of the Roman Empire, and Rome appeared more tumultuous
203 2, III | that mentioned above; for Rome, from having enlarged the
204 2, III | resulted not from the site of Rome being more favorable than
205 2, III | could not have happened to Rome, as it had its trunk so
206 2, III | be mentioned below, made Rome great and most powerful.
207 2, III | few] words, when he said: Rome grew while Alba was ruined.~
208 2, IV | was useless. And because Rome, which is an example of
209 2, IV | that those associates of Rome [who were] in Italy found
210 2, IV | by a very large City like Rome: and when they understood
211 2, IV | in time to remedy it, for Rome had achieved so much authority
212 2, IV | there was no example before Rome, and there has been no one
213 2, IV | has imitated them since Rome. And as to leagues, only
214 2, IV | institutions observed by Rome, pertinent to the events
215 2, VI | did from the beginning of Rome up to the siege of the Veienti
216 2, VI | fields as to the people of Rome, who, without expense, maintained
217 2, VI | sending of colonies, caused Rome to be enriched by the wars
218 2, VIII | wars. The first was when Rome was taken, which was occupied
219 2, VIII | that the Gauls made against Rome. After this came that which
220 2, IX | pressed and having recourse to Rome, beyond the thoughts of
221 2, IX | dominion. And as the aim of Rome was Empire and Glory, and
222 2, XII | needed: and he concluded that Rome could be taken from the
223 2, XII | when Kingdoms are armed as Rome was armed and as the Swiss
224 2, XIII | alone will be enough. And as Rome used every means, either
225 2, XV | should send eight Citizens to Rome, because they wanted to
226 2, XV | arrange who should go to Rome and to give them the commission
227 2, XIX | with them, as happened to Rome first in the acquisition
228 2, XIX | distant from the City [of Rome], and if the errors of the
229 2, XIX | have prompt remedy, or if Rome had been in any part corrupted,
230 2, XX | they wanted to return to Rome, in order that the Capuans,
231 2, XXI | there to go to Capua and Rome for examples, when we have
232 2, XXIII | hostages from all, returned to Rome and reported to the Senate
233 2, XXIII | inhabitants] transferred to Rome, and so dispersing them
234 2, XXIII | arms or by counsel injure Rome.~Nor did they [the Romans]
235 2, XXIV | build them. And so long as Rome lived free and followed
236 2, XXV | could extinguish the name of Rome. And having raised an army
237 2, XXV | incursions upon the fields of Rome, the Senate sent Gnaius
238 2, XXVIII | of Clusium having sent to Rome for aid, the Romans sent
239 2, XXVIII | indignation, went to assault Rome, and captured it all except
240 2, XXIX | which I speak happened at Rome where there was so much
241 2, XXIX | them to make war against Rome: Afterward it ordained that,
242 2, XXIX | nothing should be done in Rome worthy of the Roman people,
243 2, XXIX | the Gauls were approaching Rome, those people who had many
244 2, XXIX | ten miles distant from Rome. Here the Tribunes established
245 2, XXIX | the remainder retreated to Rome, where they entered the
246 2, XXIX | no thought of defending Rome (any more than the others)
247 2, XXIX | towns, the rest remained in Rome a prey to the Gauls. So
248 2, XXIX | fortune, in order to make Rome greater and bring her to
249 2, XXIX | exiled and not killed, caused Rome to be taken but not the
250 2, XXIX | good thing in preparing Rome [for the attack], but should
251 2, XXIX | Capitol. She caused (as Rome was to be taken) that the
252 2, XXIX | the defense of the City of Rome. And yet in ordaining this,
253 2, XXX | more the enemy approached Rome, so much more he found that
254 2, XXX | State was in the people of Rome, the Latin people, and the
255 3, I | how necessary it was that Rome should be taken by the Gauls
256 3, I | entirely, for as soon as Rome was retaken they renewed
257 3, I | laws, before the taking of Rome by the Gauls, were the death
258 3, I | and after the taking of Rome were the death of Manlius
259 3, I | Those particularly, who in Rome produced these good results,
260 3, I | almost the same effect in Rome that laws and institutions
261 3, I | Cato’s had sprung up in Rome, so great was the interval
262 3, I | best remedy, as it was at Rome, it is so dangerous that
263 3, I | men in particular had made Rome great and caused many good
264 3, II | one to reign [as King] in Rome.~From this example, all
265 3, II | recovering the liberty of Rome, we will now speak of his
266 3, III | maintaining that liberty in Rome which she had acquired;
267 3, IV | as ruler], of whom all Rome was content. And Servius
268 3, V | short time, he despoiled Rome of all that liberty which
269 3, V | So that by having filled Rome with such cruel and haughty
270 3, VI | Maternianus his friend in Rome that he learn from the Astrologers
271 3, VI | letter should arrive from Rome, or to die, he committed
272 3, VI | by having the people or Rome friendly, was avenged by
273 3, VI | the conspirators out of Rome, they were the cause that
274 3, VI | Cataline not only stayed in Rome, but came into the Senate,
275 3, VI | when he had departed from Rome, and was already with the
276 3, VI | when this was learned at Rome, they commissioned Rutilius,
277 3, VII | happened in the change that Rome made from Kings to Consuls,
278 3, VII | the Head. And the State of Rome was of this kind, and so
279 3, VIII | extraordinary authority in Rome, and to gain over to himself
280 3, VIII | himself to create tumults in Rome against the Senate and against
281 3, VIII | pestilence. The people of Rome, most desirous of preserving
282 3, XI | the plebs in the City of Rome was great and necessary,
283 3, XI | the Nobility and to all Rome, and some evil would have
284 3, XI | for a long time benefited Rome. Which thing has made me
285 3, XII | then sent Ambassadors to Rome to ask for peace, offering
286 3, XII | armies into the confines of Rome. They [the Romans] sent
287 3, XIII | having become an exile from Rome, went to the Volscians,
288 3, XIII | army with which he went to Rome in order to avenge himself
289 3, XIII | soldiers in the civil wars [of Rome]. So that I believe that
290 3, XV | whom they left to guard Rome, and the other three were
291 3, XVI | Citizens of reputation, as did Rome in her early times. For
292 3, XVI | are not organized as she [Rome] was, and who wage war only
293 3, XVI | City. And if the City of Rome was defended from this [
294 3, XVII | Which thing being known in Rome, the Senate and the People
295 3, XVII | most dangerous: so that all Rome remained troubled and in
296 3, XVII | gambled away the liberty of Rome, he answered that he had
297 3, XVII | and in those times when Rome was yet incorrupt, one ought
298 3, XVIII | withdrew himself toward Rome, and the army of the Equeans
299 3, XVIII | Equeans, and returned to Rome victorious. Which victory (
300 3, XIX | sovereignty with the Nobility in Rome, anyone who had temporarily
301 3, XX | MORE THAN ALL THE POWER OF ROME~When Camillus was with his
302 3, XXII | GLORY FOR EACH~There were in Rome at the same time two excellent
303 3, XXII | and glory, were living in Rome; and each of them, as far
304 3, XXII | the military discipline in Rome, constrained first by his
305 3, XXIII | CAMILLUS WAS DRIVEN OUT OF ROME~We have concluded above
306 3, XXIV | MILITARY] COMMANDS MADE ROME SLAVE~If the proceedings
307 3, XXIV | was what in time brought Rome to servitude. For the further
308 3, XXIV | sent their armies [from Rome], so much more did such
309 3, XXV | to be those ordinances in Rome which would have that effect (
310 3, XXV | four hundred years after Rome had been founded, there
311 3, XXV | besieged by the Equeans, Rome was full of apprehension
312 3, XXV | when the Legate came from Rome to announce to him his election
313 3, XXV | put on his toga, went to Rome and gathered an army, and
314 3, XXV | was given to poverty in Rome, and how to a good and valiant
315 3, XXV | citizen who had enriched Rome with his triumph, none the
316 3, XXVI | while the Nobles sent to Rome. The Volscians arriving
317 3, XXVIII | A PIOUS ACT~The City of Rome was afflicted by a famine,
318 3, XXVIII | means, as was seen that Rome did; for as a reward to
319 3, XXX | levies to come to attack Rome, and that the Latins and
320 3, XXX | the perpetual enemies of Rome, judged that this war would

322 3, XXX | City, for the safety of Rome. Truly and not without reason
323 3, XXX | Camillus had raised to have in Rome to guard that City; for
324 3, XXXI | be armed and organized as Rome, and its citizens every
325 3, XXXII | that Ambassadors be sent to Rome to submit themselves to
326 3, XXXII | incursions into the confines of Rome. And truly, if anyone sees
327 3, XXXIV | of the young men did in Rome, either by promulgating
328 3, XXXIV | that such was the custom in Rome is witnessed by the speech
329 3, XXXV | should be made Consuls in Rome. It happened that the first
330 3, XLI | and to send them back to Rome disarmed; the Consuls were
331 3, XLI | country, for as the life of Rome depended on the life of
332 3, XLI | for by saving that army, Rome would in time wipe out that
333 3, XLI | should die most gloriously, Rome and its liberty would be
334 3, XLII | the Consuls returned to Rome with the disarmed army and
335 3, XLII | and when he returned to Rome, Posthumius was received
336 3, XLIV | him; and departing from Rome with as much of a force
337 3, XLVI | are seen in the City of Rome; for there are seen that
338 3, XLVIII | while the Consul had gone to Rome for some ceremonies, the
339 3, XLVIII | the Allia, they came to Rome, and finding the gates open
340 3, XLIX | such a City, they arose in Rome; as was that where it seemed
341 3, XLIX | new people sprung up in Rome, and these begun to have
342 3, XLIX | a space) to corrupt all Rome. This was well recognized
