The Death of Caesar (La morte di Cesare) - Gaetano Sertor 1788, translated by me.
Previous scenes.
ACT II.
SCENE 7.
Magnificent temple meant for the Lupercal rites, illuminated at nighttime and full of people, with an eminent place for Caesar.*
In the front - Caesar, Antony, Cassius, Albinus, Calpurnia, and Porcia; in the back - several Conspirators, distinguished by a crimson ribbon on the left shoulder. Priests, guards, and lictors.
Caesar. Romans, my duty summons you
to this temple to perform
the Lupercal rites. Far from us be the unrest,
far be the dissension, and let all breathe
peace and goodwill. Antony shall give the sign…
But no, Brutus is not here. Let it be delayed
until he arrives.
Antony. Here he comes.
Caesar. Brutus,
my wishes are fulfilled
now that you are here.
Brutus. Brutus always
fulfils his promises.
Calpurnia. (How murky and dark
is his face!)
Antony. In this day, that we want to be
sacred to joy, let it be our sole great thought
to offer the gods of Rome
dances and prayers and chants:
our empire started with them.*
(Everyone takes their places.)
Chorus with dance. *
Oh you, great gods-protectors,
with favour look upon us:
let Rome be far from danger
and ever live and win.
Caesar. From Hesper's furthest coast
to Dawn's resplendent realm…
Antony. Let Rome's name resound
in never-ending praise.
Chorus.
Let Rome be far from danger
and ever live and win.
Brutus. Our freedom is what makes us
exalted and unconquered.
Cassius. Die sword in hand, but never
forswear Liberty.
Chorus.
Oh dearest of hopes,
oh yearned-for Liberty!
Porcia & Calpurnia. Oh gods, who read in souls,
you know my just desires.
I pray you, smile upon them,
console my faithful heart.
Chorus.
Let Rome be far from danger
and ever live and win.
Antony. Let these triumphant laurels
become the golden crown…
(pulls out a crown and goes to present it to Caesar. The Romans shudder at this sight and run to stop him as Caesar stretches out his hand to accept the crown.)
Chorus.
Halt, villain, no further,
cast off the guilty thought.
Caesar. Romans, calm yourselves. I do not approve
of Antony's transport, and do not accept
from his hand a pledge that you
deny me. But you could use
less boldness facing me. In you, who were slaves
to Marius and to Pompey, who were silent
in front of them, and who are emboldened by my kindness
to insult me, resistance turns
into disdain, into offence, and I am not used
to bearing this.
[Continues under the read more!]
Brutus. And how could people restrain themselves
in the face of this wretched deed? They spoke,
Caesar, like Romans, and their will,
if Heaven inspires you, must be
your will too.
Cassius. Let him perish who stays silent,
who dares this much, and who serves the tyrant.
Caesar. (Hardened, obstinate souls!)
Calpurnia. (O Heaven!)
Antony. Cassius, what are you saying? Before the eyes
of the world's monarch, such insolence?
Such insult to Antony?
Calpurnia. Antony, Cassius, oh god, be silent. What madness drives you,
today, in the presence of Roman matrons,
to rage so?
Brutus. You yourself*, I see it,
shudder at this dire attempt, at the grievous shame
brought onto the Roman name.
Albinus. (Since the fire caught,
I hope great things from it.)
Porcia. (My father's ashes,
could it be the long-awaited day
when you shall be avenged?)
Caesar. I understand.
Not liberty, like you claim, but envy,
but jealousy of my glory makes you
so bold. Yet he who sacrificed himself fully
for his country should have found it
more grateful. I do not want
to recount my deeds here, but neither should you
have forgotten what I had done
in the Forum, in the Senate, on the battlefield,
and what rights I had given to you.
Let those whose hearts fret in envy know this:
Caesar adores Rome, does everything, and fears nothing.
Calpurnia. (How my heart trembles!)
Brutus. If you adore Rome,
why do you oppress her? Your words
disagree with your deeds too much.
Cassius. Your ambitious arrogance
has already erupted from your breast. But you did not attain
that which you hope for.
Caesar. Vicious spirit, o ingrates,
and venom, and baleful hatred
make you talk. (transported by anger) But should I be
finally forced to forget my feelings
of Father and Citizen, should I no longer find
Fatherland in Rome, I shall then too…
Antony. Restrain yourself, my lord.
Calpurnia. Beloved husband, I pray you,
cease your anger. Calm yourself, have pity
on my fear.
Caesar. But how, my dear,
can I not be angered, if they came here
only to insult me?
Brutus. Caesar, to quiet
resentment and strife, to soothe the hearts,
is in your power.
Caesar. What do you want, then?
What are you asking from me? Who dares
to lecture me on my duty? I know what I must do,
what I will do; but let my thought be revealed
to the Fathers only. You have tested
my patience long enough. Let the Lupercal ceremony
be finished, and let the Senate
be assembled in the Curia of Pompey.
Gathered there, the judges of the earth
shall hear the one who subjected it
to the Capitol. They shall hear
from the Citizen who loves them,
from the Dictator who rules them,
whichever they prefer - advice or law.
(aria with chorus)
Caesar. In vain do you expect to make me
yield to defiant boasting.
Ah! When did I deserve from you
such savage recompense?
Chorus. Ask for our blood, but do not expect us
to give up our faith, our honour.
Caesar. What do you fear from my heart that loves you,
that ever wants you to be happy?
My dear wife, you hear it,
I pray you, have compassion for my pain.
Chorus. Ah, at the sound of his laments
my rage is disarmed.
Caesar. But your souls soften:
they are moved, I see it.
Righteous Heaven, I do not ask for more:
now have I attained my triumph.
Follow me, beloved wife,
come with me to breathe again.
(exit Caesar with everyone except Brutus, Cassius, Porcia, Albinus, and Conspirators)
Translator’s notes.
"Magnificent temple" etc. - the Lupercal rites were held in a cave at the foot of the Palatine Hill, in which, according to the legend, the she-wolf nursed Romulus and Remus. To reconcile the historical cave with the operatic magnificent temple, I like to imagine a magnificent cave.
“to offer the gods of Rome
dances and prayers and chants:
our empire started with them” - the Lupercal rites symbolically recreate Rome’s foundation myth.
"Oh you, great gods-protectors" etc. - because the librettist chose to stage the central scene of the opera as an elaborate religious ceremony in the heart of Rome, it seems like a great time to mention that he was a priest who in 1774 got permanently exiled from Rome after confessing to be the author of Il conclave 1774, a subversive "documentary" opera about the Papal elections. He knew, from experience, quite a bit about Roman ceremonies, Roman conspiracies, and Roman exiles (like Ligarius in the ballet earlier).
"You yourself, I see it" - masculine singular ("tu stesso"), meaning that Brutus is addressing either Caesar or Antony.
[Link to the original, via Corago.]

worst group of roman senators to go on a roadtrip together?
Get in losers we're starting a civil war in a van
Driver: Mark Antony, who is incredibly drunk.
Shotgun: Sallust, the rat bastard historian who spends the whole time trying to video the shenanigans happening in the back.
Row 2:
Marcus Calpurnius Bibulus - Still with the poop bucket on him.
Julius Caesar - Everybody either wants to fuck him or wants to kill him. We're putting him between two people who want to kill him.
Quintus Lutatius Catulus Capitolinus - Hated Caesar before it was cool. Their feud escalated to the point of Caesar trying to put Catulus on trial for embezzlement and Catulus trying to frame Caesar for the Catilinarian conspiracy.
Row 3:
Cato the Elder - We are bringing him back from 150 years earlier solely so he can complain about the younger generation and bring cabbages on board. The cabbages are not used for the intended purpose.
Gaius Cassius Longinus - Is that a dagger in his pocket or is he happy to see you? (It's a dagger.) We're putting him in the center of the van for maximum stabbing reach in all directions. And also to torment him.
Cato the Younger - Initially delighted to meet his ancestor but within 10 minutes they will be shouting at each other over who is the Most Maiorum.
Row 4:
Publius Clodius Pulcher - It's not a party without Rome's sexiest crossdressing mob boss.
Titus Annius Milo - Clodius' worst enemy and real-life killer.
Cicero - Stuffed between Clodius and Milo. He is seriously considering jumping out the back window.
Strapped to the roof: Tiberius Claudius Nero, father of the future emperor Tiberius, whom nobody wanted here but they couldn't find a good excuse to leave him at home.
The one they meant to pick up but forgot about: Lepidus.
I give it 30 minutes before the van is on fire.

Driver's Ranked by Year
Ok, this is going to be a long one because I don't want to spam, so everybody buckle up
Disclaimer: This is not my personal ranking of the ships, this is purely based on how I view the historical event that takes place in the year that the numbers make up. I will happily further explain any of the events, my analysis of the events with the ship, and why I ranked them that way if anybody is interested. I tried to get a variety, but I am better with western history so there is more of skew towards western history. I have used both CE and BCE years to create more variety. As with everything with RPF, I do not believe any of these drivers are together and this is all in good fun, if you don't want to view it as ships view them as teammates! All images are pulled from google.

An essay on why Octavius from NATM is NOT Augustus
It is evident that I hate Augustus. However, hating Augustus does not mean I should support misinformation about Augustus. There are many characteristics that Octavius from NATM has that do not match up with Augustus, the first Roman emperor. Here's why I believe they are completely different people:
1-Appearance
First of all, let's compare their physical appearances. Augustus has been described by Suetonius as pale, dirty bllonde and blue/grey eyed. He was quite skinny and short, most likely due to his asthma preventing him from going out in his childhood and teenage years. While Octavius from NATM has dark hair, dark eyes and is well built. They don't look alike at all. I see no reason as to why the creators of NATM changed his appearance other than because 1. They are different people. or 2. NATM Octavius is a made-up ancient Roman. Of course, there may be other reasons such as Octavius' appearance not being important enough for them to do research on it but I insist that if he really were Augustus, he would not be a general at all.
2-Personality
Second of all, they have different personalities. NATM Octavius is stubborn, brave, a leader. Just your average roman general. Augustus, on the other hand, is not a man to be put on the battlefield. Augustus is said to have been completely disinterested by all things military and often fled the battlefield due to an affliction (sometimes stomach aches, sometimes asthma attacks). An example of this could be the battle of Philippi, when he fled into the marsh because he was feeling ill. He left his battles for his best friend Marcus Agrippa, who handled them with his outstanding military mind. NATM Octavius seems to have no problem with leading an army and fighting during the first movie. Another distinction between their personalities is their composure. Augustus is said to be strangely calm, no matter how bad the situation is while Octavius seems to get pretty hostile sometimes, like he did with Jedediah in the first movie.
3-Name
Third of all, their names don't exactly match. This is a very important thing, because there are many romans named "Octavius" and NATM Octavius could have been any other Octavius. Augustus' birth name was Gaius Octavius Thurinus, but he eventually changed his name to Gaius Julius Caesar Octavianus, after finding out that Julius Caesar had adopted him and named him as hjs heir. Since then, this Roman politician has been referred to as "Julius Caesar". You may think that they called him Octavius to differentiate him with Julius Caesar but that is also wrong, because if they did change his name, they would change it to "Octavian", the name that historians used to call him before he was Augustus. They could've also used Augustus. There is nothing that really indicates that NATM Octavius is Octavian before Actium.
4-Agrippa
Because I love Agrippa, I will give him his own paragraph. NATM Octavius can do what Octavian/Augustus could not do : excel in the military domain. However, that is what Agrippa is for. Let's say Octavian learned strategies and logistics and becomes a good general. What the hell happened to Marcus Agrippa? Did he die from some illness? Perhaps gout? Did he betray Octavian? Where is he then? Is he safe? Is he alright? This paragraph is about Agrippa but Agrippa isn't Octavian's only companion. There is Taurus, another of Octavian generals. Maybe he wasn't important enough to be shown. But what about Livia? Octavian's wife? Where is she? At home? They don't really have one. Does she approve of his affair with Jedediah.? Maybe she listens to the album Be the Cowboy by Mitski because she is so sad that her husband is going on adventures and sleeping with a cowboy. What about Maecenas? What about the poets? What about Octavia? Marcellus?
The fandom doesn't acknowledge those people. However, you know which roman they remembered? Julia the elder. I was so mad when I found out you people draw them together, doing wholesome things. Augustus would never. Your fanfiction is super cute but it doesn't change what happened to Julia (TL ; DR for people who don't want to search it up : she got exiled because of Augustus' misogynistic policies against adultery (cheating)). NATM fans who mention what really happened to Julia, I like you and thank you.
Though this may be subjective, I believe that NATM Octavius is not Augustus because he does not have those essential allies that Augustus had.
Conclusion
NATM Octavius is not Augustus because he does not have the same physical appearance, qualities, names & titles, and friends as him. I don't understand why people believe that Octavius is Augustus when they only share a nationality and birth nomen (not even his real name). I'm not saying this because I want to hate on Augustus without hating on Octavius because I hate Octavius too.

Making up in my head a new, sexier version of Shakespeare Cassius as we speak. Everything depends on how you say "A very pleasing night for honest men". Calls for Wen Kexing delivery.
