One of the first who wrote English plays, was a noted jester, of some reputation in poetry in his time. Wood says, that notwithstanding he was stiled Civis Londinensis, yet he laid a foundation of learning at Oxford, but the severity of an academical life not suitng with his airy genius, he retired to his native place, and had the honour to have a great intimacy with Sir Thomas More.
'I'm 'Muriken' is the 'Civis Romanus sum' of the modern woman's world. It opens every door to us. If I ring the bell and say, 'Oh, if you please, I have come to interview Mr. So-and-So for such-and-such a paper, the footman looks through me at the opposite side of the street, and tells me to wait in the hall while he inquires if Mr. So-and-So will see me or not.
Ah! that was a time when the whilom "Cupid's" boast, "Civis Anglicanus sum," was not an empty claim, as it is in these days of poverty-stricken "retrenchments," and senile forfeitures of all that made England great and grand through five hundred years of history!

When I consider that Lucan died at twenty-six, I cannot help ranking him among the most extraordinary men that ever lived.
After going over the whole ground fully and in detail, he concluded by challenging the verdict of the house, whether the principles which had guided the foreign policy of the government had been proper and fitting, and whether, as a subject of ancient Rome could hold himself free from indignity by saying, "Civis Romanus sum," a British subject in a foreign country should not be protected by the vigilant eye and the strong arm of his government against injustice and wrong.
"It would so appear," said the puzzled functionary; and being bowed from the room by the lieutenant, he retired. "Civis Romanus sum," repeated Breschia, when we were left alone. "It is a great saying. And so you positively won't come back?" "Positively we will not," said Brunow. "Then, positively," returned the lieutenant, "I will go back and report my failure."
Only I humbly pray you to believe that I aspire to the conscience and commendation first of bonus civis, which with us is a good and true servant to the Queen, and next of bonus vir, that is an honest man.
The stripe, the shoes, and the crescent mark his senatorial standing. That which marks him as a citizen at all is the toga an article of dress forbidden to any inhabitant of the empire who could not call himself in the full sense "Civis Romanus." St.
