The reign of Xuma. You remember, was one of perpetual peace. . Could the Romans and their neighbors live on such amicable terms when the preceding reMgn of Romulus and the 9 advent of Servius were periods of uninterrupted warfare? Is not that as difficult to credit as the fictitious founding of the city or the ascent of Romulus into heaven? Again, the season of kingly power occupied 240 years, leaving to each king then the average age of 34 years. Does this seem really comprehen- sible when we
...consider that only three of the seven escaped deatli by violence? Is it consistent to narrate how Tarquin, at the age of eighty, left children young and tender, while accord- ing to another account they were married with those of Servius his successor, since in the former case the second Tarquin had reached the age of fifty years and in the latter seventy, when he is represented as dragging the aged king from the senate- house with all the vigour and passion of youth? These legends sound well as they are sung and recited by the poets, but they cannot escape the keen and searching investigation of the his- torian.
