Not long ago, I returned to Rome. . .
1:33:01
. . .with a young man
who had saved my life.
1:33:04
You all know him as
the finest charioteer in Rome.
1:33:08
Five times, he's driven
my horses to victory.
1:33:17
I know him as one who stands
in the place of the son I lost.
1:33:22
I have the love and pride
in a son's achievements. . .
1:33:25
. . .which I thought
I should never have again.
1:33:33
Nothing could make stronger
our bond. . .
1:33:35
. . .but tonight I wish
to share it with you all.
1:33:39
The formalities of adoption
have been completed.
1:33:43
Young Arrius is now
the legal bearer of my name. . .
1:33:46
. . .and the heir to my property.
1:33:52
This ring of my ancestors. . .
1:33:55
. . .would have gone to my son.
1:33:59
So now it is yours.
