All the other ladies were found dancing and partying, or in bed with their lovers. Only Collatine's wife was found sewing with her maids, even though it was late at night. Having fun, they quickly went back to Rome to see if they could catch their wives (whom they'd just been bragging about) by surprise, to test them. Collatine praised his wife Lucrece's incomparable sexual morality. As they talked after dinner, everyone bragged about the virtues of their wives. During the siege, the army leaders met one evening in a tent belonging to Sextus Tarquinius, the king's son. He took over the kingdom and took his followers and other Roman noblemen to attack Ardea. Plot Summary : After Lucius Tarquinius (nicknamed "Superbus" for his excessive pride) had his own father-in-law cruelly murdered, he ignored Roman laws and customs and didn't allow the people to vote. ![]() Which done, with one consent they all vowed to root out the whole hated family of the Tarquins and bearing the dead body to Rome, Brutus acquainted the people with the doer and manner of the vile deed, with a bitter invective against the tyranny of the king: wherewith the people were so moved, that with one consent and a general acclamation the Tarquins were all exiled, and the state government changed from kings to consuls. She, first taking an oath of them for her revenge, revealed the actor, and whole manner of his dealing, and withal suddenly stabbed herself. They came, the one accompanied with Junius Brutus, the other with Publius Valerius and finding Lucrece attired in mourning habit, demanded the cause of her sorrow. Lucrece, in this lamentable plight, hastily dispatcheth messengers, one to Rome for her father, another to the camp for Collatine. The same night he treacherously stealeth into her chamber, violently ravished her, and early in the morning speedeth away. At that time Sextus Tarquinius being inflamed with Lucrece' beauty, yet smothering his passions for the present, departed with the rest back to the camp from whence he shortly after privily withdrew himself, and was, according to his estate, royally entertained and lodged by Lucrece at Collatium. Whereupon the noblemen yielded Collatinus the victory, and his wife the fame. In that pleasant humour they posted to Rome and intending, by their secret and sudden arrival, to make trial of that which every one had before avouched, only Collatinus finds his wife, though it were late in the night, spinning amongst her maids: the other ladies were all found dancing and revelling, or in several disports. During which siege the principal men of the army meeting one evening at the tent of Sextus Tarquinius, the king's son, in their discourses after supper every one commended the virtues of his own wife: among whom Collatinus extolled the incomparable chastity of his wife Lucretia.
