And the verse at the end, about the baby on its mother's lap Torqutatus volo parvulus Matris e gremio suae Porrigens teneras manus Dulce rideat ad patrem Semihiante labello is as incomparable; not again till the Florentine art of the fifteenth century was the picture drawn with so true and tender a hand. Over the Atys modern criticism has exhausted itself without any definite result.
VIS AC NATURA: 'powers and constitution'. These two words are very often used by Cic. together, as in Fin. 1, 50 vis ac natura rerum. GREMIO: so Lucret. 1, 250 pereunt imbres ubi eos pater aether In gremium matris terrai praecipitavit, imitated by Verg. Georg. 2, 325. MOLLITO AC SUBACTO: i.e. by the plough. Subigere, 'subdue', is a technical word of agriculture; so Verg.
Not only am I now a member of a most un-English communion, whose great aim is considered to be the extinction of Protestantism and the Protestant Church, and whose means of attack are popularly supposed to be unscrupulous cunning and deceit, but besides, how came I originally to have any relations with the Church of Rome at all? did I, or my opinions, drop from the sky? how came I, in Oxford, in gremio Universitatis, to present myself to the eyes of men in that full-blown investiture of Popery?
Therefore it is that when we discern an Eternal and Universal Principle of Human Personality as necessarily involved in the Essential Being of the Originating Universal Spirit Filius in gremio Patris we have discovered the true Normal Standard of Personality.
This means that we must look for this principle in something that we have not yet experienced, and the only place where we can possibly find principles which have not yet manifested themselves is in gremio Dei that is, in the innermost of the Originating Spirit, or as St. John calls it, "in the bosom of the Father."
How does the part Hortensio and Gremio play in this reinforce the plot, and combine them all to instigate Petruchio to woo Katherine? How does the contest for the best sale of Bianca when Katherine is out of the way lead to a new plot? The money-contest of the suitors, judged by the father is supplemented by the mock teaching-contest of the lovers of which Bianca herself is the judge.
Probably it will be found that originally it was the received doctrine that somewhere, in nubibus or in gremio magistratuum, there existed a complete, coherent, symmetrical body of English law, of an amplitude sufficient to furnish principles which would apply to any conceivable combination of circumstances.
What! have I pinch'd you, signior Gremio? The chap should have let the colt go at once, for, in situations like yours, a person keeps breaking-up as the moments pass. But no "Ready, Tom?" "Yes." "You're sure you're ready?" "Yes." "I think he'll buck middlin' hard." Is there no pity sitting in the clouds, that looks into the bottom of your woe? We'll see presently.
For want of a veil my sister has taken refuge in your waistcoat, sir, I said, and we all laughed; though my mother vowed that if such a proposal had been made to her, or Penelope had been a girl of spirit, she would have gone home with her father that instant. "'But I am not a girl of any spirit, dear mother! says Theodosia, still in gremio patris.
