Cuius vitae spatium aequavit Metellus, quartoque anno post consularia imperia senex admodum pontifex maximus creatus tutelam caerimoniarum per duo et viginti annos neque ore in votis nuncupandis haesitante neque in sacrificiis faciendis tremula manu gessit.
Metellus equalled Corvinus life span and in the fourth year following his consular power when quite an old man was made Chief Pontiff. For twenty-two years he took care of public rituals with a voice that never faltered in the taking of vows and a hand that never quavered in the performance of sacrifices.
