Unde autem potius quam a Tullia ordiar, quia tempore vetustissimum, conscientia nefarium, voce monstri simile exemplum est? cum carpento veheretur et is qui iumenta agebat succussis frenis constitisset, repentinae morae causam requisivit, et ut comperit corpus patris Servii Tullii occisi ibi iacere, supra id duci vehiculum iussit, quo celerius in complexu interfectoris eius Tarquinii veniret.
Where to begin rather than with Tullia? For in time this is the most ancient example, in conscience nefarious, in word monstrous. She was travelling in a carriage when the driver shook his reins and stopped. Asking the reason for the sudden halt and being told that the body of her murdered father Servius Tullius was lying on the ground, she ordered the vehicle led over it so that she could come the faster to the embraces of his killer, Tarquinius.
