King Cogidubnus, what have you done? You, who are a barbarian, dare to dismiss the Roman diviner? You dare too much! Although you have obtained the highest honors from us, you have never been satisfied. You have annoyed us for a long time. Now and finally, with the armed men having entered here, you are openly displaying your treachery. Emperor Domitian, having endured for a long time from your arrogance, recently sent a letter to me. In this letter he ordered me to take over your kingdom. I order you therefore to return to the palace at once.
So this is Roman justice! So this is what loyalty looks like? Nobody is more treacherous than Romans. I have been very stupid, because I trusted the Romans until now. I lost everything. Once, having been deceived by Romans, I accepted the decorations and honors of the Romans. Today these decorations, having been given to me by the Romans, I throw on the ground. Salvius, tell your emperor, We finally have conquered Cogidubnus. Britain is conquered.
