"O Chilo Chilonides!" said he. "Pax tecum! pax! pax!" answered Chilo. "O best of Christians! Yes, I am Chilo; but this is a mistake, I do not know thee!" "Chilo Chilonides," repeated Ursus, "thy lord, Vinicius, summons thee to go with me to him." A PIERCING pain roused Vinicius. At the first moment he could not understand where he was, nor what was happening.

I assured him most solemnly, that all those steps were done under strict direction of the spirit who had confirmed my mission; therefore "nisi haec feceris, tecum in sacris communicare non possum."

"Why, 'tis only a screech-owl, you fools!" he cried, though the sound of his own voice made him falter; "an old mouse-teaser," he went on in a much lower voice. "Who's afraid?" A black and white cat making a pounce had sent hearts to mouths after this: though they found her out before they had got to "Dominus tecum," she left them all in a quiver.

"I am he whom that refers to," said Patrick; "and I heard it when I was in the islands of the Tyrrhene Sea, et nescivi utrum in meam vel extra locuta sunt verba, et ibo tecum in regionem tuam baptizare, docere, evangelizare."

The soft voices of the nuns mingled in plaintive harmony as they sang the hymn of the Virgin: "Pia Mater! Fons amoris! Me sentire vim doloris Fac, ut tecum lugeam!" Again came the soft pleading notes of the sacred hymn: "Quando corpus morietur, Fac ut animae donetur Paradisi gloria! Amen!"

"Mike," he said, "here is a subpoena for Winthrop Van Rennsellaer" our worthy opponent. "It is a duces tecum. Understand?" "Shure, I do!" answered Mike, wiping his mouth with the back of his hand and taking the paper; for, though he had no idea of what duces tecum meant, he had no intention of disclosing the fact. "It's important," continued the clerk. "Be sure and attend to the matter at once."

Omnia tecum una perieruni gaudia nostra. O brother rest from miserable me, All our delights are perished with thee, Which thy sweet love did nourish in my breath. Thou all my good hast spoiled in thy death: With thee my soule is all and whole enshrinde, At whose death I have cast out of my minde All my mindes sweet-meats, studies of this kinde; Never shall I, heare thee speake, speake with thee?

The following macaronic epigram, however, shows that they were but too much addicted to the Amour Socratique: "Let a friar of some order tecum pernoctare Either thy wife or thy daughter hic vult violare, Or thy son he will prefer, sicut fortem fortis, God give such a friar pain in Inferni portis."

Yet such is my impatience and hideous irritability that for one which I detain and write down fifty escape me: in spite of my weariness from suffering and want of sleep, I cannot stand still or sit for two minutes together. 'I nunc, et versus tecum meditare canoros." At this stage of my experiment I sent to a neighbouring surgeon, requesting that he would come over to see me.

When Trooper Howard came up for the trial which resulted in his going in irons for a five years' tour in prison, an effort was made to get Devers before the court as a witness, and a subpoena duces tecum was duly served upon him in his far distant home within sight of the sounding sea, but it did not fetch him.
