To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
74. Virgil (70-19 B.C.) was the Roman poet, author of the sEncid and of other works. Livy (59 B.c-17 a.d.) was the most picturesque of Roman historians. Byron here names the three writers who, above all others, celebrate in their works the majesty and power of Rome.
1 Sylla: Lucius Cornelius Sulla (or Sylla) (138-78 B.C.), Roman general and dictator. Stanza lxxxiii refers to the following events in his life : in 86 B.C., during the consulship of his enemies, Marius and Cinna, his party had been... over- thrown and his regulations repealed ; yet he refused to " vent the wrath of his own wrongs " until he conquered Mithridates in 83 B.C., and his " eagles flew o'er prostrate Asia." In 81 B.C. he was made dictator, but — strangest of all from such a man — in 79 B.C. he resigned his office and retired into private life.
CHILDE HAROLD 91 LXXXV Sylla was first of victors ; but our own.
The sagest of usurpers, Cromwell ! — he Too swept off senates while he hewed the throne Down to a block — immortal rebel !
