Salinator was consul in 188, and died in 170. For the name Salinator cf. n. on 11. SP. ALBINUS: Sp. Albinus died in 180. He was probably a little younger than Salinator. He can scarcely have been fifty years of age at his death. TUM ... TUM: 'now ... again'; so in 45. CARERENT: see n. on 3 ferat. VITAM NULLAM PUTARENT: 'they considered life to be not life at all'. For vitam nullam cf.
The end was the bouquet waiting at the castle door. Amy Ferat came to present it, leaving the group of country maidens under the veranda, where they were trying to shelter the shining silks of their skirts and the embroidered velvets of their caps as they waited for the first carriage.

"Non fingendum aut excogitandum sed inveniendum quid Natura faciat aut ferat."
In vain, therefore, may his lordship and his friends declaim in the ensuing session, and with our bombardment of China in his ears, say "that is my thunder." They will be only laughed at and despised. No, no, Lord Palmerston; palmam qui meruit, ferat. Let the nation decide.
"You're surely not fretting about having lost the head place." "Oh, no. `Palmam qui meruit ferat. As Robertson said the other day in his odd, fantastic way of expressing his thoughts `In the amber of duty you must not always expect to find the curious grub success."

This word is used to express whatever pertains to military life, education, &c., as the context may require. Every Roman youth who aspired to civil office, must have a military education.

All the well-made celebrities of his theatre were there, Amy Ferat at the head of them, a bold young woman who had already had her teeth in the gold of several crowns.

Those who say, there is never any excess in virtue, forasmuch as it is not virtue when it once becomes excess, only play upon words: "Insani sapiens nomen ferat, aequus iniqui, Ultra quam satis est, virtutem si petat ipsam."

The subjunctives denote that these are the thoughts not of the speaker, but of the persons who do think old age a wretched thing. See n. on 3 ferat; but cf. Kennedy, Grammar, pref., p. 30. ALTERAM ... TERTIAM: in enumerations of more than two things unus and alter generally take the place of primus, and secundus: in Cic. these latter rarely occur under such circumstances. Cf.
It was restful also to that tall Suzanne Bloch, her hair dressed in the antique way, ringlets flowing over a diadem of gold; and near her, Amy Ferat, all in white like a bride and with sprigs of orange-blossom in her fluffy hair, it was restful to her also, you may be sure.
