                   Twelfth Speech - Veturia to Volumnia<hr>
                Veturia, mother of Coriolanus<hr>
<hr>
                                   Context<hr>
       After leaving Rome in peace due to his mother's prayers, Coriolanus returned his army to the Volscians and tried to make this people recognize his good deed, but he was accused and imprisoned. Tullus, who disliked him because of his past defeat to him when they were on opposite sides, incited some agitators to prevent him from speaking when he tried to justify himself before the assembly. Finally, in this confusion, they killed him. As soon as this news reached Rome, all the women of the city immediately went to Veturia, the mother, and Volumnia, the wife of this enemy and son of Rome. The mother addressed them in roughly this manner, if the suppositions of history do not contradict it.<hr>

<hr>
       Do not consider me anymore, Volumnia, as the mother of Coriolanus, your husband. I am unworthy of this name. You are right to have as much hatred as my son had affection towards me.<hr>
