Excerpt from An Outline History of Rome
The Hellenes, who settled the Grecian peninsula, and the Latins, who peopled Italy, were from the same old Indo-European stock. The former represented the literary and artistic power of the race, the latter its ruling energy. The one sounded the depth of philosophy, delighted in discussion, found inexhaustible sources of pleasure in public games and in the drama, transported the marble from Pentelicus to Athens, and transformed it into forms of grace and beauty; the other loved physical strength, the march and struggle and triumph of great armies, the building up of empire, the subjection of foreign powers, and the enactment and execution of laws for its own and for other people. The rulers proved more than a match for their elegant and cultured cousins. The sword was mightier than pen or chisel, and the Acropolis bowed to the Capitolinus. "First with the sword, and afterward with the more powerful arms of religious faith, Rome ruled a large portion of the European world for centuries."
The history of this great empire is especially interesting to the Christian student.
