[15] sectam meam exsecutae: under my rule; Attis acts as recruiting officer, and then (duce me) guides the new devotees to their place of service. comites implies here a certain subordination as in the case of the comites of a provincial governor; cf. Catul. 28.1 Catul. 11.1. Apparently exsequi is used with sectam only here, though Cicero uses sectam persequi (Cic. Verr. 2.5.70.181), and sectam sequi is frequently found (cf. Livy 29.27.2qui meam sectam secuntur” , a formal expression in an invocation).
