See here, amid the threads of gold upon my coat your hair is sown: the threads are tarnished, but your bright hair still shines.
Travel was restricted to the rulers and the troops and to a wealthy leisure class; commerce was for most of the constituent provinces of the empire a commerce in superficialities, and each province except for Italy, which latterly became dependent on an over-seas food supply was in all essential things autonomous, could have continued in existence, rulers and ruled, arts, luxuries, and refinements just as they stood, if all other lands and customs had been swept out of being.
