Answer:

Harsh, is the right answer.

Step-by-step explanation:

In the ancient Roman republic, only the citizens of Rome were given the right to vote to elect the leaders, who can make laws for them. However, Roman citizenship was limited to adult free men. This was the time when new laws were written down and applied to the Roman Citizens equally. The Romans engraved the existing and the new laws on a metal tablet and put them in the Forum in Rome for people to read. Since there were twelve different sections, it came to be known as the Twelve Tables.

Moreover, the given is one of the laws about the fact that if one is found providing false witnesses in the court, their punishment will be harsh.
