No. 110. Horror ubique animos, simul ipsa silentia terrent. VIRG. AEn. ii. v. 755. All things are full of horror and affright, And dreadful ev'n the silence of the night.
Spedding in another preface, "that is to say, the peculiar method of investigation, the "organum," the "formula," the "clavis," the "ars ipsa interpretandi naturam," the "filum Labyrinthi," or by whatever of its many names we choose to call that artificial process by which alone he believed man could attain a knowledge of the laws and a command over the powers of nature of this philosophy we can make nothing.
Such a conclusion would have opened its eyes, and, without waiting for the memoirs of the competitors, it would have hastened to suppress its entire programme. The Academy has approached the question from above. It has said: The works of God are beautiful in their own essence, justificata in semet ipsa; they are true, in a word, because they are his.
The three goddesses induitur formosa est; exuitur ipsa forma est have taken literally the compliment paid to a certain beautiful customer by a renowned French dressmaker: "Un rien et madame est habillée!" They are coquettishly revealing their claims to the Eve-bitten fruit which Paris holds in his hand. Paris and his friend are in the most nonchalant of attitudes.
Whereupon he concludeth out of Stapleton, that we are bound to the performance of things prescribed by human laws, in such sort, that the non-performance of them is sin, not ex sola legislatoris voluntate, sed ex ipsa legum utilitate.

What pity it was these froward misses and masters of musick had not been engag'd to entertain the court of some King of Morocco, that could have known a good opera from a bad one! With how much ease would such a director have brought them to better order? But alas! as it has been said of greater things, "'Suis et ipsa Roma viribus ruit.

But it rests on good authority and it adds to the significance of the clause: the very moments, as it were, were reported to Dom. Per dispositos cursores. Constabat. Animo vultuque. Hendiadys: he wore in his countenance an expression of heartfelt grief. Securus odii.
If I must run the hazard of an uncertain choice, I am rather willing to have it under such a one as is more confident in his opinions than I am in mine, whose ground and foundation I find to be very slippery and unsure. Yet I do not easily change, by reason that I discern the same weakness in contrary opinions: "Ipsa consuetudo assentiendi periculosa esse videtur, et lubrica;"
Then there had come a teacher who, while fumbling among the old Greek lessons which had professed to tell mankind what each should do for himself, brings forth this, as it were, in preparation for the true doctrine that was to come: "Ipsa caritas generis humani!" "That love of the human race!" I trust I may be able to show, before I have finished my work, that this was Cicero's true philosophy.
