CHAPTER III.
THE CAMP AND THE ARENA.


Severus was now Emperor over the
Roman world. Returning from the East
whittier he had been called to quell an
insurrection, he had made the barbarous
province of Thracc the halting place of
his army, for the celebration of the birth
day of his youthful son Gcta. 1t was
seldom that all the numerous provinces
of the Roman Empire could be honored
with the presence of their Emperor, but
when such honor was bestowed upon
either, the entire countries around became
IN manner depopulated; the inhabitants
tiocking to behold their ruler
1t was so upon this occasion, and the
Roman Camp was completely submerged
by the immense congregation which had
come together to witness, as well the ma
iesty of Serverus, as the military games
i'll honor of his sons birthday.
Spring had now fully opened, and the
wild country of Thrace looked more wild
in its beauty, decked as it was in the
garniturc of advancing ycrdure, aud the
riches lavishly scattered on her hills and
in her valleys by natures ncver-stinging
4.
The day for the games was set. The
camp of the Roman army, formed into
an extended circle of several miles, closed
in an extent of ground sufficient for
large city. Within this broad circle, was
the arena, wherein were to be performed
feats OF proweiss, of military skill, arch
cry, and gymnastics.
On the eastern verge of the enclosed
area, and looking proudly towards the
Roman city, rose the majestic Pavilion
OF the Emperor, and from which, seated
within, on an elevated throne, he might
view the games as they proceeded. This
tent was decorated with everything costly
that Eastern luxury and style could sug-
gest; rich damasks, and satins in deep
folds, embroidered with gold, and laden
with rich fringeS, hung around in iuassy
profusion; the ground was covered over
with carpets Of rarest Persian workman
ship, interviewer withrichs stones, toimitate
Olympian halls; the high-raised throne
was arrayed in vivid colored velvetS,
studded with diamonds: while the steps
leading up to the royal seat were composed
of bossy shields recently captured from
the revolving chiefs in the East. Indeed,
more magnificent arrangement could
not be conceived than was that of the
royal camp and tent of Severus on the day
devoted to honor the anniversary of the
birth of his best beloved son, Geta.
In front Of the royal pavilion, was 10

CHAPTER I
ROME

RUNE.
1t was in the year 100 of the Christian
era. Rome had far overleaped the cuIrd.
mating pointof her world-renewned glory,
and was fast tracing her way down the
steep declivity of "Dccline and Fall. !"
The days had wasted when a virtuous
prince could long rule the Roman world,
and like, still proud, though decaying
volsptuary, the Empire became a banble,
either for purchase with money or blood.
Indeed, the Pratorians had already
once, from the towers of the eternal city,
publicly declared for the highest bidder,
and placed the purple upon the shoulders
of Julian; and Pertinax, since the Anto-
nins was among the very last who had
not governed the empire, and raised him
self to that government, on hecatombs of
murdered mobiles and through blood-pour-
ing rivers from the isle Of Britain to the
Euphrates. ....... .............,..,..
Sevcrus, the African, was now Empc-
ror. To avenge the murder of the good
PertinaX, he had taken up arms in the
East-had pressed his way to the capi-
tal-had enslavcd the Senate-eXpcnded
large sums in largesses to the army and,
finally, after having usurped the empire,
became a hated tyrant. a;d.s.
AT this time Rome was in that condi-
ton when nations are most rotten when
no profession was honorable save that of
arms : where the military power was
superior over the civil when, the Senate
stood aghast; when the soldiery spake;
and when to be citizen was to be
degraded, and even the appellation of
" citizen proved deadly blot upon
whomsoever it should fall. 5.-a -.
In those days, the army of province
might revolt and proclaim an Emperor,
take up its march for the Capitol, and ad-
NIT it, raise their standard, murder the
existing Emperor, and substitute its
own, demand acquiescense of the Senate
which was now seldom, if ever, withheld,
while the people" citizens - either,
armed by fear or. wonder, stood silent,
seeing their government change hands
often, in quick and fearful succession.
But it is not Rome's history her rise,
or her decline, that | intend to write ::
but, with the tale l am now weaving,
some slight knowledge Of her real condi-
tlon at the time my plot is laid, is ncces-
sary; else, a too fictitious garb may APP
pear to be thrown about the subject.
1t is not to be denied, that the rapid
changes to which the Roman world was
subjected, and to which she submitted
during herlatter days, appear, without the
proof of history, almost too fabulous for
credulity; but she was doomed-she
iiourished, in her infancy, youth and
prime, as no nation has ever fourished
since the world began, save that of our
own beloved Republic, and having passed
the meridian of her. glory, like the meteor,
as it quickly descends to the horizon, so
that great empire under the weight of
calamities peculiar to itself, pushed rapid
ly onward to the gulf which has since
swallowed it up, and left nothing but a
name and the glory of what it was.
