“Where are thy parents?”
“They are also prisoners.”

“I know not their crime, my lady. We lived a peaceful life in a small house outside of the city. In one short day our happy family was torn asunder.”
“Hast thou a brother or sister?”
“I had a brother.”
“Where is he?”

“By whom?” asked Agrippina, also speaking in Greek.
“By Sejanus.”
