Panegyricus Iuliani Augusti
The peerless poets of the gods have passed into Elysium, and so, O Emperor, the task of singing your accomplishments has fallen to me. Numerous and great, your deeds have swept over this long-troubled land as the purifying sea rushes over a parched sandy shore, its waters smoothing the rough grains that grate and vex. Though my voice be but a dry whisper before the perfumed gale of Homer’s thundering verse, a rude stutter beside Vergil’s spiced and honeyed words, it must suffice.

Who then is invincible? The one who cannot be upset by anything outside their reasoned choice. -EPICTETUS When Queen Elizabeth I (1533-1603) came into power at the age of twenty-five, foreign rivals, and even her own ministers, doubted her ability to rule.

Inscribed in the base of this distinguished landmark is The New Colossus, a poem by Emma Lazarus, herself the child of Portuguese immigrants.

Parliament building
It has been nearly a century since the foundation stone laying ceremony of the old Parliament house, which then housed the Imperial Legislative Council, was conducted on February 12, 1921 by the visiting Duke of Connaught, Prince Arthur.
