 文本:

But for those chieftains, sensible enough to reach for the olive branch rather than the battle javelin1, Claudius had another plan. Give them, or rather their sons, a trip to Rome, and a taste of the dolce vita, and just watch their resistance melt. While they were in Rome, many of them must have begun to notice that life for your average patrician2 was, well, exceptionally sweet.
