Ea natura rerum est, patres conscripti, ut qui sensum verae gloriae ceperit quique se ab senatu, ab equitibus Romanis populoque Romano universo senserit civem c[l]arum haberi salutaremque rei publicae, nihil cum hac gloria comparandum putet.
It is a law of nature, Members of the Senate, that once a man has come to a perception of true glory and perceived that in the eyes of the senate, the Roman knights, and the entire Roman people he is a valued citizen and a benefit to the Republic, he will think nothing comparable to this glory.
