Latin Vulgate

Famous quotes containing the words latin and/or vulgate:

    They named it Ovation from the Latin ovis [a sheep].
    Plutarch (46–120)

    The poem goes from the poet’s gibberish to
    The gibberish of the vulgate and back again.
    Does it move to and fro or is it of both
    At once? Is it a luminous flittering
    Or the concentration of a cloudy day?
    Wallace Stevens (1879–1955)
