NOTE D

LINES CONTRASTING THE PAST AND PRESENT

OF ROME

DUM simulacra mihi, dum numina vana placebant,
Militia, populo, moenibus alta fui:
At simul effigies arasque superstitiosas
Deiiciens, uni sum famulata Deo,
Cesserunt arces, cecidere palatia divûm,
Servivit populus, degeneravit eques.

Vix scio quae fuerim, vix Romae Roma recordor;
Vix sinit occasus vel meminisse mei.

Gratior haec iactura mihi successibus illis;
Maior sum pauper divite, stante iacens :
Plus aquilis vexilla crucis, plus Caesare Petrus,
Plus cinctis ducibus vulgus inerme dedit.
Stans domui terras, infernum diruta pulso,
Corpora stans, animas fracta iacensque rego.
Tunc miserae plebi, modo principibus tenebrarum
Impero tunc urbes, nunc mea regna polus.

Written by Hildebert, bishop of Le Mans, and afterwards archbishop of Tours (born A.D. 1057). Extracted from his works as printed by Migne, Patrologiae Cursus Completus.a a See note d, p. 286.
