And now the flames are hissing, and amid the roar of furnace and of bellows the head of the mighty Sejanus, the darling of the mob, is burning and crackling ... Up with the laurel wreaths over your doors! Lead forth a grand chalked bull to the Capitol! Sejanus is being dragged along by a hook, as a show and a joy to all! "What a lip the fellow had! What a face!" - "Believe me, I never liked the man!" - "But on what charge was he condemned? Who informed against him? What was the evidence, who the witnesses who made good the case?" - "Nothing of the sort; a great and wordy letter came from Capri" - "Good; I ask no more."

- Juvenal, Satire X

"Nil plus interoggo." - "I ask no more."

That's you.
