"Per mare, per terras, currit mercator ad Indos." He might also have said, and truly, with the philosopher, "OMNIA MEA MECUM PORTO," for it was a long time before he could brag of more than he carried at his back; and when he got on the winning side, it was his commendation that he took pains for it, and underwent many various adventures for his after-perfection, and before he came into the public note of the world; and thence may appear how he came up PER ARDUA:

The terras of the Declaration on this point were, "Scarce a town within their territories that is not filled with abusive pictures." In the perspective of this portrait the painter had drawn some ships on fire in a harbor.

Many times a day have I repeated with tears the verse: Heu, fuge crudeles terras, fuge littus avarum! I could not endure the enormous wickedness of the blinded people of Italy; and the more so because I saw everywhere virtue despised and vice honored. We see clearly that Savonarola's vocation took its origin in a deep sense of the wickedness of the world.

We'll go back to our books oh! you have never left them; but I, poor sinner that I am ! Give me my Dante, and let me feel him between my hands! Where is Virgil? Heu! fuge crudeles terras, fuge litus avarum. Is it quoted right? Is it apropos? 'Savonarola's word of fate. 'Then mine too! How have you been so patient with me? A London season and I still have Homer to read!

"Postera Phoeba lustrabat lampade terras," continued Brother Emmanuel, inexorably running his horny finger-nail beneath the line, "humentemque Aurora polo dimoverat umbram " the lesson dragged along.

Ovid tells, that when he prayed for the soul of Anchises, the custom was strange in Italy. 'Hunc morem Aeneas, pietatis idoneus auctor Attulit in terras, juste Latine, tuas. The 'Biblicae' Sortes, which I have seen consulted on the altar, are a parody on the 'Sortes Virgilianae. Our numerous altars in one church are heathen: the Jews, who are monotheists, have but one altar in a church.

Hertfordiae; et ex ea suscepit sex filios et octo filias; e quibus supersunt Ricardus, Catherina, Margarita, Anna, et Elizabetha. Legatus, in quarum proxima, cum pulcherrime officio suo functus esset, splendidissimam quamdiu egerat Vitam cum luctuosa morte commutavit. Monumentum hoc, cum Hypogeo, moestissima conjux pie posuit, quas etiam corpus Mariti sui ab urbe Madrid huc per terras transtulit.
