Marcus Vinicius?

Marcus Vinicius.

Marcus Vinicius?

I am Marcus Vinicius...

Hail, in the name of the divine Nero, prince emperor and supreme pontiff.

Who is Marcus Vinicius? My nephew.

Mm, Vinicius has an eye.

You belong to the household of Vinicius.

Lygia. Commander Vinicius.

Do not fret, Vinicius.

Those are Commander Vinicius' orders.

What of Marcus Vinicius and the girl Lygia?

Commander Marcus Vinicius. He wishes an immediate audience.

I bid you welcome, Marcus Vinicius.

Tribune Fabius Nerva and Commander Marcus Vinicius.

We've lost too much time as it is.

I should like Vinicius and his little flower held in reserve.

Is that the hostage I brought for Vinicius?

Know then, Lygia, that I have given you to Marcus Vinicius as a reward for his devotion to me and his brilliant service on the battlefield.

Commander Marcus Vinicius. I request an audience with the emperor.

You sent word to Vinicius to remain outside the city. So I did.

We shall try to make it diverting.

In your manhood, Marcus Vinicius.

Yes, yes. Hearing all this, I vow you've come to the right man, Marcus Vinicius.

Vinicius has hardly taken his eyes from her. She must be truly exciting.

I'd be lying if I said I wasn't attracted by what I see, Marcus Vinicius.

Because his nephew, Vinicius, loves a Christian girl, Lygia.

I am devastated dear Petronius is not here to witness our pleasure, Vinicius.

But if our Hercules should be cruel enough to destroy the poor animal I shall have to spare her life for Vinicius.
