But what can be more elegant than this, which is not caused by nature, but by some regular usage? we say inclytus, with the first letter short; insanus, with the first letter long; inkumanus, with a short letter; infelix, with a long one: and, not to detain you with many examples, in those words in which the first letters are those which occur in sapiente and felice, it is used long; in all others it is short.

But over the great gate of Toledo the inscription still remains: Erexit fautore Deo Rex inclytus urbem Wamba. "To God and King Wamba the city owes its walls." Alas! the end was what might be expected of such goodness in so evil an age. A traitor arose among those he most favored.
But those that digged the ground there to find his bodie, after they had entered about seuen foot déepe into the earth, they found a mightie broad stone with a leaden crosse fastened to that part which laie downewards toward the corps, conteining this inscription: "Hîc iacet sepultus inclytus rex Arthurius in insula Aualoniæ."
