I dunno what L.F. means, but it is the title of a Roman Emperor.

Marcus Agrippa (L.F.) Consul for the third time has done...

The second means
"From eternity to eternity" (But I think it is "ae" instead of "e")



it means son of Lucius. But Agrippa was son-in-law of Emperor Augustus, grand father of Emperor Caligula and great grand father of Emperor Neron. Him never were Emperor himself.

I remember that Agrippa didn't want to be emperor. (with good reason)

The die has fallen. (I am not sure if this is the "official" English version)

Strangely we use plural in German for that, even if "est" says it is not...
