Bold in the first onset, they cannot bear a repulse, being easily thrown into confusion as soon as they turn their backs; and they trust to flight for safety, without attempting to rally, which the poet thought reprehensible in martial conflicts: "Ignavum scelus est tantum fuga;" and elsewhere "In vitium culpae ducit fuga, si caret arte."
Volunteers were now called for to accompany us, who would carry each his arms, a little food, and such baggage as might be necessary just enough to march up rapidly to Fuga, to have a little shooting in some favourable jungles near there, and return again as soon as possible. There was no difficulty, as the jemadar foresaw.
They will be found in the present volume; I only hope they may have retained, in their new dress, some vestiges of the grace they had in the telling at the Well of St. Clare. Consors paterni luminis, Lux ipse lucis et dies, Noctem canendo rumpimus; Assiste postulantibus. Aufer tenebras mentium; Fuga catervas dæmonum; Expelle somnolentiam, Ne pigritantes obruat.
It will appear that as soon as the Mexican Consul here got an inkling of the apparent plan of the North and South American Steamship Company, of Guaymas, to sting Don Venustiano Carranza by slipping him a steamer with a clouded title, he must have wired Don Venustiano to round up the directors of the said company and give them the ley fuga.
Custom has made all speaking of a man's self vicious, and positively interdicts it, in hatred to the boasting that seems inseparable from the testimony men give of themselves: "In vitium ducit culpae fuga." Instead of blowing the child's nose, this is to take his nose off altogether. I think the remedy worse than the disease.
To which he graciously answers "Si mora praesentis leti, tempusque caduco Oratur juveni, meque hoc ita ponere sentis, Tolle fuga Turnum, atquc instantibus eripe fatis. Hactenus indulsisse vacat. Sin altior istis Sub precibus venia ulla latet, totumque moveri Mutarive putas bellum, spes pascis inanis."
That this medal had often acted as a preservative to Burton she was in after life thoroughly convinced. Bibliography: 15. Lake Regions of Equatorial Africa. 16. Vol. 33 of the Royal Geographical Society. To Fuga. January to March 1857.
Unfortunately I was not able to witness his end, but I went to the teatrino the evening after. We arrived early and began by inspecting the programme Carlo ottiene piena vittoria contro Marsilio Fuga di costui e presa di Barcelona Marfisa trova Bradamante che more fra le sue braccia.
Third campaign. Taum. The Frith of Tay. Nationibus. Here synonymous with gentes; sometimes less comprehensive, cf. note, G. 2. Pactione ac fuga. Al. aut fuga, but without authority. There are but two distinct clauses marked by aut aut: either taken by assault or abandoned by capitulation and flight. Nam firmabantur. Moras obsidionis. A protracted siege, or blockade. Annuis copiis.
His architect—perhaps the miserable Fuga, who ruined the interior of the Cathedral at Palermo, who knows?—dug up the fine old pavement, tore out the mosaics and had them carted away, effaced the frescoes, and at last transformed the venerable building with its memories of popes and princes into a commonplace white-washed chamber.
