More earthquakes. The moon on the waters. Another journey northwards. Retreat to the depot. More rain at the depot. Jimmy's escape. A "canis familiaris". An innocent lamb. Sage-bush scrubs. Groves of oak-trees. Beautiful green flat. Crab-hole water. Bold and abrupt range. A glittering cascade. Invisibly bright water. The murmur in the shell. A shower bath. The Alice Falls. Ascend to the summit.
As they went up to the altar the bell sounded for the Elevation at the high-altar of the church, at the missa familiaris, and the footstep of someone passing through the north transept ceased instantly at the sound. The priest ascended the steps, set down the vessels, spread the corporal, opened the book, and came down again for the preparation.
But I think it likely that you know a great deal more than you have thought it proper to tell me, about this matter of the treasure trove I suspect you have acted the part of the Lar Familiaris in Plautus a sort of Brownie, Edie, to speak to your comprehension, who watched over hidden treasures. I do bethink me you were the first person we met when Sir Arthur made his successful attack upon Misticot's grave, and also that when the labourers began to flag, you, Edie. were again the first to leap into the trench, and to make the discovery of the treasure.
Since there were no signs of the trees having been ascended by the natives in search of them. CANIS FAMILIARIS, var. AUSTRALASIAE. Dingo. This animal was not very numerous in the interior, more especially towards the centre, for it was not noticed to the north of the Stony Desert. Wherever seen it was in the most miserable condition, and it is difficult to say on what they lived.
"You swear, sir, to carry out all our directions and to dot down " "I do. I swear solemnly to dot down if you will only this way. Take care of the mat." "We trust you, Mr. Vivian," said Madame, with majestic pathos. "A wife, a mother trusts you. Placens uxus! Mater familiaris." "I pledge my honour. This is the no, no, not that way, not that way!"

Three tangibly-human aspects of Christ's life figure here: the bambino-cult, which not only appeals to the people's love of babyhood but also carries on the old traditions of the Lar Familiaris and of Horus; next, the youthful Jesus, beloved of local female mystics; and lastly the Crucified that grim and gloomy image of suffering which was imported, or at least furiously fostered, by the Spaniards.
PATIENTIA: 'endurance', 'persistence'; it is not equivalent to our 'patience'. PRAECLARE: sc. dicit; cf. n. on 3. FAMILIARIS: see Introd. Att. 2, 19, 2; Ovid, Fast. 2, 241; Verg. Aen. 6, 846; Suet. Tib. 21. CUNCTANDO: Cf. Polybius 3, 105, 8. On Fabius' military policy consult Mommsen, Hist. of Rome, Bk. III. ch. 5. REM: here = rem publicam.
But one of these spirits, the Lar Familiaris, had special charge of the house and household, and as such was worshipped with the other domestic gods at the hearth. He is regularly worshipped at the great divisions of the month on Calends, Nones, and Ides, but he has also an intimate and beautiful connection with the domestic history of the family.
At a later date but still very early there was added to the household worship the idea of the general protector of the house, the Lar, which gave rise to the familiar expression "Lares and Penates." The origin of this Lar Familiaris, as he is called, is interesting, because it shows the intimate connection between the farming life of the community and its religion.
