Cum autumnus venisset, om- nis messis facta est et folii ab arboribus Ceci- derunt. Nix erat tam alta. ut grilius fere humaretur.

31 The PORCUPINE QUILL -- is chiefly due to the simplicity of his home- spun philosophies. He had no new doctrine to teach and no great epic to relate, yet his works have earned for him universal favour. His genial expression of commonplace truths has appealed to the simple-hearted, everyday pesple of all ages. This year marks the Bimillennium Hora- tianum and lovers of the classics in every country have made adequate preparation to honour the great event. The most important of the celebrations will be a pilgrimage to Horace's beloved Italy to visit the places im- mortalized in lyric poetry by the bard of Venusia. Horace's tomb on the Esquiline Hill is marked by a simple monument, but through- out the entire world his verses stand as an everlasting oenotaph. J. R.

33 1 The PORCUPINE QUILL Inquisitio In nostro ludo est horribile monstrum quod est maximum et acerrimum et Inquisitio appellatur. Magnam partem anni in mente principis se abdit. Sed ter in anno solvitur et in cameras se ejicit. Omnes discipulos terretg diiiicites res roga complures quarum non etiam intellegunt. Cum Inquisitis ab principe revocata est magnopere omnes gau- dent. JOE GREENBERG Three Little Pigs Do Not Speak Pig Latin I was interested in reading that a little girl in Johannesburg has translated the Three Little Pigs into Latin, in a play called Tres Parvafe Porcae. Let's hope that Pluto will allow it to be shown in shadow pictures before the Romans in Hades. Her translation of the chorus, Who's afraid of the Big Bad Wolf? is Magnum malum lupum quis timet? Quis timet? Quis timet? Magnum malum lupum quis timet? Ha! Ha! Ha! Ha! I'll huff and I'11 puff and I'll blow your house down becomes Sufliabo! Agitabo! Anhelabo! Expirabo! atque casam devastabo! ROSS SERVICE Caesar Averts a Panic in the Roman Army One summer day, while Caesar was having a well-deserved rest, he was suddenly awakened by the murmur of many voices. These voices belonged to the soldiers of the trusted Tenth Legion and were raised against the other legions because of their fright and their dis- loyalty to Caesar. Caesar arose hurriedly and went to see the cause of the commotion. A trusted cen- turion answered him, Imperator, the men of the newly enlisted legions have been fright- ened by the ideas put into their heads by the Gauls and merchants of the town. Caesar's expression did not change. The centurion continued, These men have exaggerated the size and valour of the Ger- mans and the new men have believed them. Caesar understood the situation then. His enemies in Rome had sent hirelings to spread reports of the alarming size and extraordi- nary valour of the Gennans. Caesar did not hesitate: he had the com- manders and chief centurions of the legions assembled before him. The Germans have often been beaten by the Helvetians whom we have already conquered, said Caesar. A cheer arose from one section of the meet- ing. Tomorrow night at the fourth watch, I will strike camp, he continued, and if you and your men do not wish to follow, I will ad- vance with one legion only-the Tenth- whose loyalty I do not question. A breathless silence reignedg then a spokesman said, We will go with you, Im- peratorf' Cheer after cheer arose from the whole assembly. The centurions withdrew to instil the new confidence into the hearts of the fighting men. Once again Caesar had foiled the plans of his enemies, and once again sent the Eagles in triumph into new Helds of conquest. SAM HABIB, Form LII The Seven Kings of Rome The Romans, as we all well know Lived in the days of long agog Their language has come down to me, To learn from 2.20 to three. The Romans had just seven kings, To manage their affairs and things. Romulus, war and bloodshed saw 5 Numa was lord of peace and law. Tullus lov'd lights and blood and lust, Avcus let shields and weapons rustg Tarquin, the Elder, ruled, the fifth, Servius reigned, a man of thrift. Tarquin, the Proud, the worst and last, Was from the city boldly cast. Then they were ruled by leading men. So ends the verse from on my pen.
