Note 497 — JUVENAL'S SATIRES. (continued 2)
Lewis Evans translation
Ancilla natus. Servius Tullius (Cf. vii., 199) was the sen of Ocrisia, or Ocriculana, a captive from Corniculum. Liv., i., 39. The Trabea was a white robe with a border and broad stripes (trabes) of purple, worn afterward by consuls and augurs: cf. x., 35; the diadema of the ancient kings was a fillet or ribbon, not a crown.
"And he who graced the purple which he wore, The last good king of Rome, a bondmaid bore." Gifford.
