Sentences with spargere
Latin to English
Nec pietas ullast velatum saepe videri vertier ad lapidem atque omnis accedere ad aras nec procumbere humi prostratum et pandere palmas ante deum delubra nec aras sanguine multo spargere quanrupedum nec votis nectere vota, sed mage pacata posse omnia mente fueri.Compare It is no piety to show oneself often with covered head, turning toward a stone and approaching every altar, none to fall prostrate upon the ground and to spread open the palms before shrines of the gods, none to sprinkle altars with the blood of beasts in showers and to link vow to vow; but rather to be able to survey all things with mind at peace.
Res humanas ordine nullo Fortuna regit sparsitque manu munera caeca, peiora fovens; vincit sanctos dira libido, fraus sublimi regnat in aula.Compare Fate without order rules the affairs of men, scatters her gifts with unseeing hand, fostering the worst; dire lust prevails against pure men, and crime sits regnant in the lofty palace.
