Poem of the Day: N.Edgar

  1. Autor opum, vindex scelerum, largitor honorum,
  2. Sceptriger Edgarus regna superna petit.
  3. Hic alter Solomon, legum pater, orbita pacis,
  4. Quod caruit bellis, claruit inde magis.
  5. Templa Deo, templis monachos, monachis dedit agros,
  6. Nequitiae lapsum iustitiaeque locum.
  7. Novit enim regno verum perquiere falso
  8. Immensum modico, perpetuumque brevi.
