Translation of "Fragmentos" in English

Nenhuma das tribos germânicas, que, dividindo entre si as províncias do império dos Césares, tinham tentado vestir sua bárbara nudez com os trajos despedaçados mas esplêndidos da civilização romana, soubera como os godos ajuntar esses fragmentos de púrpura e ouro, para se compor a exemplo de povo civilizado.

None of the Germanic tribes, who, dividing among themselves the provinces of the Caesarian empire, had tried to dress their barbaric nakedness in the torn but splendid garments of Roman civilization, had known like the Goths how to gather these fragments of purple and gold, to compose themselves in the example of civilized people.
