Side 419 - Mandela bibit, rugosus frigore pagus, 105 quid sentire putas? quid credis, amice, precari? sit mihi quod nunc est, etiam minus, et mihi vivam quod superest aevi, si quid superesse volunt di ; sit bona librorum et provisae frugis in annum copia, neu fluitem dubiae spe pendulus horae.
Side 421 - Aura feret geminusque Pollux. XXX. EXEOI monumentum aere perennius Regalique situ pyramidum altius, Quod non imber edax, non Aquilo impotens Possit diruere aut innumerabilis Annorum series et fuga temporum. Non omnis moriar, multaque pars mei Vitabit Libitinam : usque ego postera Crescam laude recens dum Capitolium Scandet cum tacita virgine pontifex.

Side 305 - ... hoc, ubi nunc fora sunt, udae tenuere paludes ; amne redundatis fossa madebat aquis. Curtius ille lacus, siccas qui sustinet aras, nunc solida est tellus, sed lacus ante fuit.
Side 103 - ... nonne vides, cum praecipiti certamine campum corripuere, ruuntque effusi carcere currus, cum spes adrectae iuvenum, exsultantiaque haurit 105 corda pavor pulsans? illi instant verbere torto et proni dant lora...
Side 37 - Coepi egomet mecum sic cogitare: 'Hem! nos homunculi indignamur, si quis nostrum interiit aut occisus est, quorum vita brevior esse debet, cum uno loco tot oppidum cadavera proiecta iacent? Visne tu te, Servi, cohibere et meminisse hominem te esse natum?
Side 295 - This was the most unkindest cut of all; For when the noble Caesar saw him stab, Ingratitude, more strong than traitors' arms, Quite vanquished him.
