"Vos, O clarissima mundi Lumina, labentem coelo quae ducitis annum, Liber, et alma Ceres; vestro si munere tellus Chaoniam pingui glandem mutavit arista, Poculaqu' inventis Acheloia miscuit uvis, Munera vestra cano."
With her and Sister Theresa, the priest proposed next day to leave Carlisle, for the nearest seaport from which they could embark for France. 'FUNGARQUE INANI MUNERE, he repeated, as the ecclesiastic retired. 'Yet why not class these acts of remembrance with other honours, with which affection, in all sects, pursues the memory of the dead?
NAM DUM SUMUS etc.: the whole of this doctrine is Platonic; cf. Lael. 13. MUNERE NECESSITATIS ET ... OPERE: 'function and task allotted as by fate'.
