And He Came Near Assuming A Crown At Once
And Changing The Semblance Of A Principate
Into The Form Of A Monarchy
Risen Above The Elevation Of Princes And Kings
Gaius Began From That Time On To Lay Claim To Divine Majesty
And Voices Whispered In His Ear
Steal The Statues Of The Gods
Remove Their Heads
And Put Your Own In Their Place
Destroy Your Fellow Men
They Are Not Worthy Of Your Presence
From Baldhead To Baldhead
Bid Them To Be Led Away
Humiliate Them In Public
Serve Them To The Beasts
When They Protest Their Innocence
Cut Off Their Tongue
And Put Them Back Again
Remember That You Have The Right
To Do Anything To Anyone
All Must Pay For Any Act Of Disrespect
There Is No Antidote Against Caesar
All Hail Caesar
All Hail Caesar
All Hail Caesar
Mad With Power, Gaius Assailed Mankind Of Almost Every Epoch
With No Less Envy And Malice Than Insolence And Cruelty
He Respected Neither His Own Chastity Nor That Of Anyone Else
And In Reckless Extravagance He Outdid The Prodigals Of All Times In Ingenuity
