Excerpt from The Works of John Moore, M.D, Vol. 5 of 7: With Memoirs of His Life and Writings, by Robert Anderson, M.D When the Romans, by the superiority of their military discipline, had subdued all the nations within their reach, they endeavoured to render them more civilized. Were we to give credit to some of their poets and historians, we should imagine that they undertook the first from the pure view of accomplishing the second. Yet no history, sacred or profane, furnishes examples of the inhabitants of one country entering forcibly into the territories of another, from the mere impulse of benevolence. It is therefore probable that the Romans were influenced by the same kind of good-will to the people they conquered, that the Spaniards were to the Mexicans, and the European traders on the coast of Guinea are to the negroes. A late elegant historian informs us, that 'as a consolation for the loss of liberty, the Romans communicated their arts, sciences, language, and manners, to their new subjects.' That the Romans instructed the Britons in certain arts is undoubted; but it was merely to render them more profitable slaves to Rome.
