Great improvements to my additions. Only question is that of the Livy quote. In 38.24 it says,
It is recorded that by the purity and strictness of her life she maintained to the very last the honour of a deed so worthy of a matron. My wording before were not EXACTLY like this, however the last part was close (depending on interpretation). If you feel it appropriate, could this wording above be added back in as to what Livy says about the event. Otherwise, just leave out - I'll agree to that. Thanks.--Dougtalk20:08, 12 December 2007 (UTC)Reply
Glad you approve - I was a bit ruthless. Less is more, I think. I took the quote out not because it was inaccurate - it probably comes from a different translation than the one linked to, which would naturally have a different wording - but because I didn't think it added anything to the article, or even said anything particularly about Chiomara - it's just a formulaic way a Roman aristocrat would praise a woman. --Nicknack009 (talk) 22:09, 12 December 2007 (UTC)Reply
