I have given the description of the life that I propose to lead for the future, in this motto, which I have put up in the frize of my library in my new house: Nunc veterum libris, nunc somno, et inertibus horis Ducere sollicitae jucunda oblivia vitas.
Suddenly, without opening his eyes, Benjamin Wright began: "'Animula vagula blandula, Hospes comesque corporis, Qua nunc abibis in loca? "What do you think, Lavendar?" "It will return to God, who gave it," said Dr. Lavendar. There was another silence; until he wakened to say, brightly, "Simmons, you freckled nigger, you'd better wring their necks, now, I guess."
"They've sold dirtier things," said Wayne, calmly: "they have sold themselves." "It's no good, my Buckling," said the King, rolling about on his chair. "You can't cope with this chivalrous eloquence. You can't cope with an artist. You can't cope with the humorist of Notting Hill. Oh, Nunc dimittis that I have lived to see this day! Provost Wayne, you stand firm?"
I hope also to republish a revised edition of my book on Orchids, and hereafter my papers on dimorphic and trimorphic plants, together with some additional observations on allied points which I never have had time to arrange.

But Jan used to say, 'Water will do it best; give water time. Jan Van Eyck was never in a hurry, and that is why the world will not forget him in a hurry." This and several other receipts, quae nunc perscribere longum est, Margaret gave him with sparkling eyes, and Gerard received them like a legacy from Heaven, so interesting are some things that read uninteresting.
Ye base-born apes, that’s why you catch the pestilence, because our blood mantles and foams in our ruddy veins like new milk in the wine cup, which is too strong for this clime, and my blood is up, and I drink a full measure of it to great Rome; for what does old Horace say, but ‘Nunc est bibendum’? and so get out of my way.”
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.
And although I am not entitled to sing any Nunc dimittis, I am well aware that the task that has occupied the best part of my life can have left few years and little strength for any work that comes after.
