Quae cum ita sint, non existimemus

Quae cum ita sint, non existimemus ad mortuos, pro quibus curam gerimus, pervenire, nisi quod pro eis sive altaris, sive orationum, sive eleemosynarum sacrificiis solemniter supplicamus: quamvis non pro quibus fiunt omnibus prosint, sed iis tantum quibus dum vivunt comparatur ut prosint.

Wyniki (angielski) 1:

Since this is true, I do not think that to the dead, and for whom we care, reach, except that instead of either of the altar, whether of prayers, or alms, we solemnly supplicate: although not all will become of those for whom they are made, but only to those whom while they live is compared as will become of .
