First sentence: 1. We should like to ask you and, especially, you Romans, lords and princes of the world, whether you think Piety, Harmony, Safety, Honor, Virtue, and Happiness, and all other such names to which we see you have built altars with splendid shrines, have divine power and live in the precinct of heaven; or have you thus placed them on the list of the gods above for the sake of form as usual, because we desire and want the good things for which they stand to come our way?
