Velleda by Charles Voillemot 1869

"Time would fail me to tell of thy battles
in the North ; of insurgent Rhine, of captured Veleda's
entreaties and, latest and greatest triumph, Rome placed in
thy hands (to govern) while the destruction of the Dacians
going on, when Gallicus, the chosen, took up the leader-
ship of our great chief, and Fortune marvelled not."
