What was the end of it all? The nation bred Romans no more



What was the end of it all? The nation bred Romans no more. To
cultivate the Roman fields 'whole tribes were borrowed.' The
man with quick eye and strong arm gave place to the slave, the

lies no power to alter it. So at last the Roman world, devoid
of power to resist, was overwhelmed by the swarming Ostrogoths.
