| First Senator | This is the tenor of the emperor's writ: | |
| | That since the common men are now in action | |
| | 'Gainst the Pannonians and Dalmatians, | |
| | And that the legions now in Gallia are | 5 |
| | Full weak to undertake our wars against | |
| | The fall'n-off Britons, that we do incite | |

| Second Senator | Ay. | |
| First Tribune | Remaining now in Gallia? | |
| First Senator | With those legions | 15 |
| | Which I have spoke of, whereunto your levy | |
| | Must be supplyant: the words of your commission | |
| | Will tie you to the numbers and the time | |
| | Of their dispatch. | |
| First Tribune | We will discharge our duty. | 20 |
