Diamondes thought themselues Dii mundi, if they might but carue hir name on the naked glasse. With them on it did he anatomize these bodie-wanting mots, Dulce puella malum est. Quod fugit ipse sequor. Amor est teni causa sequendi. O infolix ego. Cur vidi, curperii. Non patienter amo. Tantum patiatur amari.
You know the old observation, Raro vidi clericum poenitentem,—I have seldom seen a clergyman penitent. He will needs maintain the lawfulness of all which he hath done, and will not be, as this text would have him, ashamed of all that he hath done. Among all that were converted by the ministry of the apostles, I wonder most at the conversion of a great company of priests, Acts vi. 7.
For I have even interfered with him about the lady." Then Harry had to repeat his veni, vidi, vici after his own fashion. "Of course I interfered with him. How is a fellow to help himself? We both of us were spooning on the same girl, and of course she had to decide it." "And she decided for you?" "I fancy she did. At any rate I decided for her, and I mean to have her." Then Mr.
We may recall Ariosto's verses: "Io venni dove le campagne rosse eran del sangue barbaro e latino che fiera stella dianzi a furor mosse. "E vidi un morto all' altro si vicino che, senza premer lor, quasi il terreno a molte miglia non dava il cammino. "E da chi alberga fra Garonna e Reno vidi uscir crudelta, che ne dovria tutto il mondo d'orror rimaner pieno."
My motto is veni, vidi, vici, which freely translated means I can sleep asea when I can’t sleep ashore." "But Aunt Mary?" cried Jack blankly. "She’s all right," said Mitchell; "she’ll soon reach the cold burnt toast stage and when she reaches the stage we’ll all welcome her into any chorus. Here’s to choruses in general and one chorus girl in particular.
Had you seen his face as he did so, you would have said it was a note of triumph. "My DEAR MOTHER, Veni, vidi, vici I have come, I have seen him, and I am at all events tolerated. The perilous moment was when I told him who I was.
"Vidi ego, quod fuerat quondam solidissima tellus, Esse fretum. Vidi factas ex æquore terras: Et procul
This is not entirely the type of flanking movement I would myself recommend, but it is an attempt at the idea and that is something. It may prove a semi-fiasco like the awful tragedies of Neuve Chapelle, Loos, the Somme, and Arras; but it might possibly turn out a success. Then it would be simply a case of veni, vidi, vici!"

From a terrace on the roof the whole wide view is seen; and here upon a parapet, from which we leaned one autumn afternoon, my friend discovered this graffito: "E vidi e piansi il fato amaro!"
Tommy: "She has lots of offerings, but she generally prefers to burn 'em herself. When Egeria's swains talk about her, it is always 'ut vidi, how I saw, succeeded by 'ut perii, how I sudden lost my brains."
