I cannot find the phrase "roman method" used anywhere in Shakespeare.

In Antony and Cleopatra, Cleopatra speaks to her servants on the death of Mark Antony saying

"Let's do it after the high Roman fashion,"

where she intends that they all commit suicide.

I take it to mean that their attitude was that of the high Romans, who would commit suicide rather than be dishonoured - not a reference to a method of suicide.

If it is a reference to a method, then it might be a reference to how Mark Antony died, which used to be depicted by the actor falling on his sword, having stuck it, blade upwards, in the ground.
