Regio imperio propter nimiam Tarquinii superbiam finito, consulatus initium Valerius Publicola cum Iunio Bruto auspicatus est, idemque postea tres consulatus acceptissimos populo Romano gessit et plurimorum ac maximorum operum praetexto titulum imaginum suarum amplificavit, cum interim fastorum illud columen patrimonio ne ad exsequiarum quidem impensam sufficiente decessit, ideoque publica pecunia ductae sunt.
When the power of the kings was brought to an end by reason of Tarquins inordinate arrogance, Valerius Publicola inaugurated the Consulship along with Junius Brutus. Later he held three Consulships greatly to the satisfaction of the Roman people and enlarged the record on his mask with honourable mention of many important achievements. And yet that crown of the Fasti died worth an amount which did not even cover his funeral expenses, and so it was celebrated at the public cost.
