Roma
From Seven Sages of Rome
'''Rome'''
At a time when Rome was besieged by many 'heathen' kings, seven wise men attempt to govern the city, but cannot repel the enemy forces. At last the seventh wise man, named Junius (or Genius) orders the troops to be readied, then mounts the walls to the highest point. He dons a strange cloak, and a mask with many faces, a takes up two swords. He sets up a mirror or a fire behind him, and shouts so loudly the heathen armies all hear him. They are tricked into believing he is a powerful god and flee, leaving Rome victorious.
