Quanto nostrae ciuitatis senatus uenerabilior in deos! qui post Cannensem cladem decreuit ne matronae ultra tricesimum diem luctus suos extenderent, uti ab his sacra Cereris peragi possent, quia maiore paene Romanarum uirium parte in execrabili ac diro solo iacente nullius penates maeroris expertes erant. itaque matres ac filiae coniugesque et sorores nuper interfectorum abstersis lacrimis depositisque doloris insignibus candidam induere uestem et aris tura dare coactae sunt. qua quidem constantia optinendae religionis magnus caelestibus iniectus est rubor ulterius aduersus eam saeuiendi gentem, quae ne iniuriarum quidem acerbitate ab eorum cultu absterreri potuerit.
Valerius Maximus. Factorvm et Dictorvm Memorabilivm, Libri Novem. Karl Friedrich Kempf. Leipsig. Teubner. 1888. Keyboarding.
