Mīlitēs erant incertī. “Sed Rōma est urbs sacra,” clāmāvērunt. “in urbem armātī venīre nōn dēbēmus. sine armīs in urbem veniāmus.” The soldiers were uncertain
Sulla replied angrily: “Soldiers, if you will not come with your weapons, I will not enter Rome. But I want to kill my enemies. I am a Roman general.” Let us enter the city without weapons
Sulla īrātus respondit: “Mīlitēs, sīcum armīs nōn veniētis, Rōmam nōn intrābō. sed hostēs meōs interficere volō. ego sum imperātor Rōmānus.”
Tum Sulla Rōmam cum mīlitibus contendit. urbem occupāvit. hostēs suōs interfēcit. posteā Rōmae imperium longum tenuit.
