"Indeed!" cried Lord Vincent; "and pray, Mr. Wormwood, what did you say!" "Why," answered the poet, glancing with a significant sneer over Vincent's somewhat inelegant person, "I thought of your lordship's figure, and said grace!" "Hem hem! 'Gratia malorum tam infida est quam ipsi, as Pliny says," muttered Lord Vincent, getting up hastily, and buttoning his coat.
Non refert auctor fuerit, factorve malorum. Anne opera in vitium sceleris pulcherrima verti, Cum possit prohibere, sinat; quod si velit omnes Innocuos agere Omnipotens, ne sancta voluntas Degeneret, facto nec se manus inquinet ullo? Condidit ergo malum Dominus, quod spectat ab alto, Et patitur fierique probat, tanquam ipse crearit.
The next step is to declare that civilisation is the causa malorum and that what is named progress is really regress. But Rousseau found a way of circumventing pessimism. He asked himself, cannot equality be realised in an organised state, founded on natural right? They deal with two distinct problems, and the Social Contract does not mark any change in the author's views.
He was buried that evening in the chapel of the castle, out of respect to his high birth; and the chaplain of Fitzallen of Marden, who said the service upon the occasion, preached, the next Sunday, an excellent sermon upon the text, "Radix malorum est cupiditas," which we have here transcribed. There are also fragments of a mock sermon preached by Gregory upon that occasion, as for example:
Nec moram festinatio malorum fecit, quin Agareni, et Arabes, et Turci, alienae scilicet a Christo gentes, Syriam, et Lyciam, et minorem Asiam omnino, et maioris multas vrbes, inter quas et Ephesum, ipsam etiam Hierosolymam depopulati, super Christianos inuaderent. The same in English.
But as Nietzsche no longer belongs to the Quixotic class, as Germany seems to emerge with him from her youthful and cranky nebulosity, you will not even have the pleasure of being thrashed in the company of your Master: no, you will be thrashed all alone, which is an abominable thing for any right-minded human being. "Solamen miseris socios habuisse malorum." *
But the most dangerous class of all is the mulatto; he is everywhere, like wealth, irritamenta malorum. The 'bar sinister, and the fancy that he is despised, fill him with ineffable gall and bitterness. Inferior in physique to his black, and in morale to his white, parent, he seeks strength by making the families of his progenitors fall out.
"This mention of a woman may turn their minds from their pious meditations to worldly and evil thoughts." "Woman! woman!" groaned the Abbot. "Well has the holy Chrysostom termed them radix malorum. From Eve downwards, what good hath come from any of them? Who brings the plaint?" "It is brother Ambrose." "A holy and devout young man." "A light and a pattern to every novice."
