Non tarn creber agens hiemen ruit aequore turbo, 

 Quam multse pecudum pestes. Nee singula morbi 

 Corpora corripiunt, sed tola sestiva repente 

 Spemque gregeraque simul, cunctamque ab origine gentum. 



Virgil. Georgics, lib. iii. 470. 



Non est in medico semper relevetur ut aeger ; 

 Interdum docta plus valet arte malum. — Ovid. 



To be ignorant of what has occurred before our time, is ever to remain in a state of 



childhood. — Cicero.
