He repeated several times, "Nunc et in hora mortis", then said, "Oh, my God, come to my aid: hasten to succour me." These were his last words.
Venit hora Absque mora Libros deponendi. IN the preceding paper I have made some general observations on the Christmas festivities of England, and am tempted to illustrate them by some anecdotes of a Christmas passed in the country; in perusing which I would most courteously invite my reader to lay aside the austerity of wisdom, and to put on that genuine holiday spirit which is tolerant of folly and anxious only for amusement.
Before going out to superintend the work of the farm, Poëri turned around on the threshold of the room and said, "Hora, remain here until I have appointed a room for you. I shall send you some food by one of my servants." And he walked away quietly, the whip which marked his rank hanging from his wrist.
Long after the oxen, the asses, the goats, and the geese had gone in, a column of dust which the wind could not sweep away still rose slowly into the heavens. "Well, Hora," said Poëri to Tahoser, "has the sight of the harvest and the flocks amused you? These are our pastoral pleasures.

Already the court was hurrying to the Duke of Orleans; some of the more confident had repaired to the Duke of Maine's; the king's servants were left almost alone around his bed; the tones of the dying man were distinctly heard above the great number of priests. He several times repeated, Nunc et in hora mortis. Then he said, quite loud, "O, my God, come Thou to help me, haste Thee to succor me."

If the blisters which I shall now order her, should not relieve her, I fear we can do no more." "Would not you please, sir," says the apothecary, "to have the powders and the draught repeated?" "How often were they ordered?" cries the doctor. "Only tertia quaq. hora," says the apothecary. "Let them be taken every hour by all means," cries the doctor; "and let me see, pray get me a pen and ink."
