quae, cum senatus libris Sibyllinis per decemviros inspectis censuisset ut Veneris Verticordiae simulacrum consecraretur, quo facilius virginum mulierumque mens a libidine ad pudicitiam converteretur, et ex omnibus matronis centum, ex centum autem decem sorte ductae de sanctissima femina iudicium facerent, cunctis castitate praelata est.
After the Sibylline books had been inspected by the Board of Ten, the Senate ordained that an image of Venus Vertcordia be consecrated, the more easily to turn the minds of virgins and married women from lust to chastity; and that from all the matrons one hundred and from the one hundred ten drawn by lot should make a judgment, who was the most blameless of the sex. Sulpicia was placed above them all for purity.
