FROM PHOTIUS

My first book contains the deeds of Romes seven kings, viz.: Romulus, Numa Pompilius, Tullus Hostilius,[*] Ancus Marcius (a descendant of Numa), Tarquinius, Servius Tullius, and Lucius Tarquinius, a son of the other Tarquinius. The first of these was the founder and builder of Rome, and although he governed it rather as a father than as an absolute monarch, he was nevertheless slain, or, as some think, translated. The second, not less kingly, but even more so than the first, died at the age of . . . The third was struck by lightning. The fourth died of a disease. The fifth was murdered by some shepherds. The sixth lost his life in a similar manner. The seventh was expelled from the city and kingdom for violating the laws. From that time kingly rule came to an end, and the administration of government was transferred to consuls.

FROM SUIDAS

Having kept careful watch against her fathers return, she (Tarpeia) promises Tatius to betray the garrison.

FROM SUIDAS

At the command of Tatius they threw pieces of gold at the girl until she succumbed to her wounds and was buried under the heap.
