Let Rome in Tiber melt, and the wide arch of the ranged empire fall!

The line “Let Rome in Tiber melt, and the wide arch of the ranged empire fall!” is a powerful and evocative statement made by the character Mark Antony in William Shakespeare’s play Julius Caesar. This line is spoken during Antony’s famous funeral oration for Caesar, in which he seeks to turn the Roman citizens against the conspirators who assassinated their beloved leader.
