But after the Romans had once subdued them, the better to stablish, and confirm their Empire, they forced them to receive both the Romaine laws, and also the Romaine tongue: as they had done before in several Countries within Italy, and in other places moe. Which thing unto some seemed so grievous, that,1 as it is reported by Cato, Turrhe•us the last King of Ethr•ria, notwithstanding he were content to yield his Country to the Romans, yet could never be won to yield his tongue. For the better performance hereof, they had it enacted by a law, that the Judge in every Province should hear, and determine matters, and pronounce sentence only in Latin, as it appeareth by these words:2 Decreta 3a praetoribus, Latin debent interponi. By mean whereof S. Hierome saith, The Punic tongue in his time, was much altered from that it had been before.
