χῶρος ἐγὼ θεσμοῖσιν ἀνειμένος: ἐνθάδε πηγὴ
— Paton edition
ἄφθονος Αὐσονίων ἐκκέχυται νομίμων,
ἣ πᾶσιν τέταται μὲν ἀείναος, ἠιθέοις δὲ
ἐνθάδ᾽ ἀγειρομένοις πάντα δίδωσι ῥόον.
I am a place dedicated to Law. Here gushes forth
— Paton edition
an abundant fount of Roman Jurisprudence which
runs perennially for all, and gives its whole stream
to the youth here assembled.
