wing year, B. C. 507, Publicola was elected consul a third time with M. Horatius Pulvillus, who had been his colleague in his first consulship, or according to other accounts, with P. Lucretius; but no event of importance is recorded under this year. He was again consul a fourth time in B. C. 504 with T. Lucretius Tricipitinus, his colleague in his second consulship. In this year he defeated the Sabines and entered Rome a second time in triumph. Ilis death is placed in, the following year (B. C. 503) by the annalists (Liv. 2.16), probably, as Niebuhr has remarked, simply because his name does not occur again in the Fasti. Niebuhr supposes that the ancient lays made him perish at the lake Regillus, at which two of his sons were said to have been killed (Dionys. A. R. 6.12), and at which so many heroes of the infant commonwealth met their death. He was buried at the public expense, and the matrons mourned for him ten months, as they had done for Brutus. (Liv. 1.58, 59, 2.2, 6-8, 11, 15,

[PULVILLUS.] Some writers, however, place the dedication of the temple two years later, B. C. 507, in the third consulship of Publicola, and the second of Horatius Pulvillus. (Dionys. A. R. 5.21; Tac. Hist. 3.72.) Next year, which was the second year of the republic, B. C. 508, Publicola was elected consul again with T. Lucretius Tricipitinus.

[VALERIA GENS.] When Lucretia summoned her father from the camp, after Sextus Tarquinius had wrought the deed of shame, P. Valerius accompanied Lucretius to his daughter, and was by her side when she disclosed the villany of Sextus and stabbed herself to the heart. Valerius, in common with all the others who were present, swore to avenge her death, which they forthwith accomplished by expelling the Tarquins from the city. Junius Brutus and Tarquinius Collatinus were first elected consuls, B. C. 509; but as the very name of Tarquinius made Collatinus an object of suspicion to the people, he was obliged to resign his office and leave the city, and Valerius was chosen in his stead. Shortly afterwards the people of Veii and Tarquinii espoused the cause of the Tarquins, and marched with them against Rome, at the head of a large army. The two consuls advanced to meet them with the Roman forces. A bloody battle was fought, in which Brutus fell; and both parties claimed the victory, till a v
