Non illuwm nostri possunt mutare labores; Non si frigoribus mediis Hebrumque bibamus, Sithoniasque nives hyemis subeamus aquosae: Omnia vincit amor. VIRG. Ec. x. 64. Love alters not for us his hard decrees, Not though beneath the Thracian clime we freeze, Or the mild bliss of temperate skies forego, And in mid winter tread Sithonian snow: Love conquers all.
If any one else had "bored" me at the tavern about his views of Feuerbach and Lotze, I should undoubtedly have stopped him with Goethe's "Ergo bibamus." There was one person in Gottingen, however, Herbert Pernice, from whom I might expect full sympathy. Though only five years my senior, he was already enrolled among the teachers of the legal faculty.
He never went about otherwise than surrounded by a small court of bishops and abbes of high lineage, gallant, jovial, and given to carousing on occasion; and more than once the good and devout women of Saint Germain d' Auxerre, when passing at night beneath the brightly illuminated windows of Bourbon, had been scandalized to hear the same voices which had intoned vespers for them during the day carolling, to the clinking of glasses, the bacchic proverb of Benedict XII., that pope who had added a third crown to the Tiara Bibamus papaliter.
Non illum nostri possunt mutare labores; Nec si frigoribus mediis Hebrumque bibamus, Sithoniasque nives hyemis subeamus aquosae: Nec si, cum moriens alta liber aret in ulmo AEthiopum versemus oves sub sidere Cancri. Omnia vincit amor; et nos cedamus amori. Ec. x. 62.

But mark well! this empire is a spiritual one, and all these earthly princes lie at the feet of Christ's representative. This is the crown of all epochs of the world's history. 'One Shepherd, One Sheepfold! Bibamus!" On the little platform, where formerly a reader used to read out of holy books while the meal was going on, some musicians now sat with flutes and lutes.
