The two roads which were traveled the most were the ones that led toward Rome. This is shown by the tombs on both sides of them, and by the discovery of a deposit of a great quantity of ex voto terracottas in the angle between the two.

Already a blast of heat was rising over the land and the rasping cries of the cicala fretted their talk; and Caterina bade him follow her down into the voto the vast, cool, underground chambers which, for the patricians of Cyprus, made life possible during this heated term, between the freshness of the morning and the comfort of the evening shadows. The talk was long and serious.
Early in 1888 the leading members of the Shrewsbury Archaeological Society asked Butler to write a memoir of his grandfather and of his father for their Quarterly Journal. This he undertook to do when he should have finished Ex Voto. In December, 1888, his sisters, with the idea of helping him to write the memoir, gave him his grandfather's correspondence, which extended from 1790 to 1839.

I heard of your successes and am now anxious to know how you get on with the great picture, the 'Ex voto' if it does not prove full of beauty and power, two of us will be shamed, that's all!

Whether he was saying to himself, "Good Lord! that wretch will be putting my kneeling down into another Alps and Sanctuaries or Ex Voto"; or whether it was only that we were a couple of blackguard atheists who contaminated the air all round us, I cannot tell; but on venturing to look back a second or two after we had passed them, the bishop and the lady had got a considerable distance away.
Odi le spade orribilmente utarsi A mezzo il ferro; il pie d'orma non parte, Sempre a il pie fermo, a la man sempre in moto; Ne scende taglio in van, ne punta a voto." Their swords together clash with dreadful sound, Their feet stand fast, and neither stir nor start, They move their hands, steadfast their feet remain.
