    Since last the Great Twin Brethren Of mortal eyes were seen, Have years gone by an hundred And fourscore and thirteen. That summer a Virginius Was Consul1 first in place； The second was stout2 Aulus, Of the Posthumian race. The Herald3 of the Latines From Gabii came in state： The Herald of the Latines Passed through Rome's Eastern Gate： The Herald of the Latines Did in our Forum4 stand； And there he did his office, A sceptre in his hand.
