Our worthy and esteemed Faber was married two days ago and consequently may not post for some time as he adjusts to his new duties. I offer both Mr and the new Mrs Faber my heartiest congratulations. At the end of my Best Man speech I offered a toast in English which I here present in its original form:
Benedictio nuptiarum
Utinam uxoris scientia et sollertia arte Latine
id mariti praestet semper--
Utinam ea usque irrideat ei,
et semper poenitet--
Et ergo impensam librorum suorum
semper ignoscat.
