"Curtius, who has secured the public health, should be rewarded." "Curtis occidit Clementem. Curtius auro Donandus, per quem publica parta salus." Nor was this all. Pasquin declared, that, on occasion of Clement's death, a bitter strife arose between Pluto and Saint Peter as to which should receive the Pope: "Noluit hunc coelum, noluit hunc barathrum."

'Insignissime Vice-Cancellarie, vosque egregii Procuratores, praesento vobis hunc Baccalaureum in facultate Artium, ut admittatur ad incipiendum in eadem facultate.

I know not whether it is my regard to the faculty that inhances the value of the noted Esculapius, who appears with a venerable beard of delicate workmanship. He is larger than the life, cloathed in a magnificent pallium, his left arm resting on a knotted staff, round which the snake is twined according to Ovid. Hunc modo serpentem baculum qui nexibus ambit Perspice

Wherefore that master, in addition to the inscription in his praise that may still be seen on those works, won the honour of being celebrated by Sannazzaro, a rare poet, in this most beautiful distich: Jocundus geminum imposuit tibi, Sequana, pontem; Hunc tu jure potes dicere pontificem.

The origin of these farces, as indeed of all kinds of Latin comedy, and probably also of the literary satura, is to be found in the jokes and rude fun of the country festivals, and especially perhaps, as Horace tells us of the harvest amusements : Fescennina per hunc inventa licentia morem Versibus alternis opprobria rustica fudit, Libertasque recurrentis accepta per annos Lusit amabiliter, etc.

Luke xvi. 28: "Ne et ipsi veniant in hunc locum tormentorum." The Saint Prays to Be Directed by a Different Way. Intellectual Visions. I now resume the story of my life. I was in great pain and distress; and many prayers, as I said, were made on my behalf, that our Lord would lead me by another and a safer way; for this, they told me, was so suspicious.

The necessities of the moment were thus satisfied without present or future danger; as respected the future, he knew or believed that Verus was marked out for early death; and would often say, in a strain of compliment somewhat disproportionate, applying to him the Virgilian lines on the hopeful and lamented Marcellus, "Ostendent terris hunc tantum fata, neque ultra Esse sinent."

Why fear to bring into the light of day unmasked wickedness, even though it confronts the public gaze unblushingly? Extreme turpitude and extreme excellence are both in the schemes of Providence; and the poet has summed up eternal morality for all ages and nations in this sublime exclamation "Abstulit hunc tandem Rufini poem tumultum."

But one could set against that a passage from Vergil, who makes Nisus say with far more reason: Di ne hunc ardorem mentibus addunt, Euryale, an sua cuique Deus fit dira cupido? Herr Wittich seems to have thought that in reality our independence is only apparent.

'My biographical friend will excel in exhibiting every little foible; Hunc tu Romane caveto. I cannot describe the whole scene to you, but will some day viva voce. From the Duc d'Aumale Woodnorton, January 31st. My dear Mr.
