Florentia quoque post flagellam renovabitur et prosperabitur: Florence also, after the scourging, shall be purified and shall prosper." "That means we are to get Pisa again," said the shopkeeper.

He smiled and said, “Renovabitur, ut aquila, juventus mea.”

Renovabitur ut aquila juventus tua thy youth shall be renewed as an eagle that is what we all desire!
