Ignore my imperious hand at your peril
At its beck lie
All the fearful legions of Rome
Take heed you who would pass
Without my leave
This arm may summon the might of Empire
Attend me with care
Choice is mine not yours
Decisions belong to the Senate
Proceed now as I direct
And as you travel in peace know
Your peace lies in the hands of Rome
