    EPIGRAPH: Vita brevis, sensus ebes, negligentiae, torpor et inutiles occupationes nos pancula scire permittent. Et aliquotients scita excutit ab animo per temporum lapsum frandatrix scientiae et inimica memoriam praeceps oblivio. The shortness of life, the dullness of the senses, the numbness of indifference and unprofitable occupations allow us to know but very little. And again and again swift oblivion, the embezzler of knowledge and the enemy of memory, shakes out of the mind, in the course of time, even what we knew.
