''Fuimus Troes'' is a verse drama attributed to Jasper Fisher about Julius Caesar's invasion of Britain in 55 BC. It was published in quarto in London, 1633. The drama is written in blank verse, interspersed with lyrics; Druids, poets, and a harper are introduced, and it ends with a masque and chorus. ==Publication== It was published by Robert Allott in 1633. The title page describes it as, "Fuimus Troes, the True Trojans, being a story of the Britaines valour at the Romanes first invasion. Publickly presented by the gentlemen students of Magdalen College in Oxford. ''Quis Martem tunicâ tectum adamantinâ Dignè scripserit''?". London, printed by I. L. for Robert Allott; and to be sold at the sign of the Bear, St Paul's Chruchyard, 1633. 4to". The Latin tag is an abbreviation of a passage from Horace's ode ''Scriberis Vario'' (I:6): "Quis Martem, tunicâ adamantinâ tectum, aut Merionen, pulvere Troico nigrum, aut Tydiden, ope Palladis superîs parem, dignê scripserit?" (Who may fitly sing of Mars array'd in adamant mail, or Merion, black with dust of Troy, or Tydeus' son by Pallas' aid strong against gods to thrust?). It was probably performed at Magdalen College, Oxford by the students some time before 1625.〔Curran, John, ''Roman Invasions: The British History, Protestant Anti-Romanism, and the Historical Imagination in England, 1530-1660'', University of Delaware Press, 2002, p.19.〕
