In that assembly, the men, who had the greatest reason to be overwhelmed with grief, were the most forward to offer incense to the emperor. Junius Gallio, the brother of Seneca, was, by the loss of that excellent man, so struck with terror, that to save his own life he descended to humble supplications. Salienus Clemens rose to oppose him, as a parricide and an enemy to the state. He continued his invective till the fathers checked his violence. It was not now, they said, a time to gratify personal animosity, under an appearance of zeal for the public good; nor would it become any man to open again the wounds which the clemency of the prince had closed forever.
Baina senatuan, zeuden bezain minduta egonik ere, denak zurikeria makurtzen ziren bitartean, Salieno Klementek Junio Galion, Seneka anaiaren heriotzaz izutua eta bere biziaren alde erregutzen zuena, gogor hartu zuen, etsai eta parrizida deituz, harik eta senatuaren adostasunak atzera eginarazi zion arte, gorroto pertsonalak asetzeko, gaitz publikoez baliatzen zela zirudien hartatik, edo printzearen baretasunak bakez edo ahazturik utzi zuena ankerkeria berriak eragiteko ateratzetik.
