Excerpt from Medieval and Modern History: Its Formative Causes and Broad Movements

And while the Roman empire was becoming internally weaker every day, it was from without subject to violent attacks. In the north there were the German tribes, a people young and vigorous in body and in spirit; and dur ing the third and fourth centuries these German tribes, whom Caesar and succeeding emperors had failed to subdue, poured down upon the Roman Empire. They did not, however, wholly destroy it, but united their r.ough tribal traditions of liberty and justice to all that was best in the Rome of the past.
