Answer:
"So many merchants arrive from all points of the compass with their cargoes [goods] throughout the year, and with each return of harvest, that the city is like the common warehouse of the world... clothing from Babylonia, luxuries from barbarian lands [lands lacking culture] beyond... Egypt, Sicily, and Africa are your farms.... Everything converges [comes to gether] trade, shipping, agriculture, metallurgy, all the skills that exist and have existed, everything that is bred [produced] or grown. Anything that cannot be seen in Rome does not exist."
