As usual, he had a good reason to urge for what he did: "I will not excuse, but justify myself for one pretended crime for which I am liable to be charged by false critics, not only in this translation, but in many of my original poems, that I Latinize too much.
Whether they would have the judgment to use it rightly to attach the Latin nation by still closer bonds to Rome, gradually to Latinize Italy, to rule their dependents in the provinces as subjects and not to abuse them as slaves, to reform the constitution, to reinvigorate and to enlarge the tottering middle class many a one might ask.
One of the most important occurrences in this reign was the attempt of the Patriarch Nikon to establish an authority in the East similar to that of the Pope in the West and in many ways to Latinize the Church. This attempt to place the Tsar under spiritual authority was put down by a popular revolt followed by stricter orthodox methods in a sect known as the Raskolniks.
Species, Holloway's Fuzzy Fuzzy fuzzy holloway. How'll that be?" That would be all right, he supposed. At least, they didn't try to Latinize things in extraterrestrial zoology any more. "I suppose our bumper crop of land-prawns is what brought them into this section?" "Yes, of course. George was telling me you thought they'd come down from the north; about the only place they could have come from.
One sometimes hears Canadians particularly in England accused of crudity in speech. I confess I like the crudities, the rawness, the colloquialisms. They smack of the new life in a new land.

It is a common practice, now-a-days, amongst a sort of shifting companions that run through every art and thrive by none, to leave the trade of Noverint, whereto they were born, and busy themselves with the endeavors of art, that could scarcely Latinize their neck-verse, if they should have need; yet English Seneca, read by candlelight, yields many good sentences, as, Blood is a beggar, and so forth; and if you intreat him fair in a frosty morning, he will afford you whole Hamlets, I should say, handfuls of tragical speeches.
It would be a pity to Latinize Touch-me-not, or Yarrow, or Gold-Thread, or Self-Heal, or Columbine, or Blue-Eyed-Grass, though, to be sure, this last has an annoying way of shutting up its azure orbs the moment you gather it, and you reach home with a bare, stiff blade, which deserves no better name than Sisyrinchium anceps.
