Описание: Excerpt from the book:

For to accustom to rest and repose, through the charms of luxury, a population scattered and barbarous, and therefore inclined to war, Agricola gave private encouragement and public aid to the building of temples, courts of justice, and dwelling-houses, praising the energetic and reproving the indolent. He likewise provided a liberal education for the sons of their chiefs, and showed such a preference for the natural powers of the Britons over the industry of the Gauls, that they who lately disdained the tongue of Rome now coveted its eloquence. Hence, too, a liking sprang up for our style of dress, and the toga became fashionable. Step by step they were led to things which disposed to vice-the lounge, the bath, the elegant banquet. All this, in their ignorance, they called civilisation, which is but a part of their servitude.
