Dixit illa omnia de valetudine: nihil praeterea esse, cur amplius deberet obdurare, hereditatem avitam longa viduitate cum despectu salutis suae quaesisse, eandem summa industria auxisse; iam deum voluntate ipsum uxori, fratrem eius virili togae idoneos esse; tandem aliquando se quoque paterentur solitudini suae et aegritudini subvenire; ceterum de pietate sua et supremo iudicio nihil metuerent; qualis vidua eis fuerit, talem nuptam futuram.
She told that whole story of her illness; there was no further reason for her to hold out any longer; by her long widowhood and by neglecting her own health she had obtained his grandfathers inheritance, and had added to it by her own great efforts; now by the kindness of the gods he for his part was of an age to marry, and his brother to take the toga of manhood; at long last they must also allow her to remedy her loneliness and illness; but in the matter of her affection and her final dispositions they need fear nothing; as a married woman she would be the same person she had been to them as a widow.
