Then all being gone, a glance of motherwit helping, he whispers close in going: Madam, when comes the storkbird for thee? The air without is impregnated with raindew moisture, life essence celestial, glistening on Dublin stone there under starshiny coelum. God's air, the Allfather's air, scintillant circumambient cessile air. Breathe it deep into thee.
Charles Greville, who was in Paris at the time of this appointment, writes: "Nothing can exceed the violence of feeling that prevails. The king does nothing but cry; Polignac is said to have the fatal obstinacy of a martyr, the worst courage of the ruat coelum sort."
Now, as all sin must be repented of at once, it is the duty of the passengers and crew to put the ship about, and deliver it to the owners in Glasgow! Perhaps we should not think it best to put in force the 'ruat coelum' doctrine, especially if we had had some 'ruat coelum' storms, and it was late in the season.
"Curtius, who has secured the public health, should be rewarded." "Curtis occidit Clementem. Curtius auro Donandus, per quem publica parta salus." Nor was this all.

Then, again, the legal maxim, Cujus est solum, ejus est usque ad coelum his own right as first occupant extends to the vault of heaven; no opponent can gain any advantage by squatting on his back.
Now the rain is over, your carriage is at the door, the country smiles and the wet highway waves a beckoning hand. We have worn through a cloud with cloudy discourses, but we are in a land of shifting weathers, 'coelum crebris imbribus ac nebulis foedum, not every chapter can be sunshine.
Omne solum forti patria, et coelum undique supra est. The causes which led to this change of feeling on the part of Christian IV.'s advisers have not been explained by the biographers of Tycho.
Sed cum successu ipso truculentior, alacritate nimia procurreret, ensis manu excidit. Ad quem recolligendum cum se inclinasset, omnium incursu oppressus, vinculis palmas dedit.
