This chapter presents a reading of a poem by Horace. It argues that the ode does bear a political message which has been generally obscured because scholars have appreciated neither the form nor the argument of the poem. It discusses these two aspects in turn, before suggesting what the political significance of the ode might be. It demonstrates that ode is both a response to, and an advertisement for, the views of Augustus himself.
