I have lived, and I have run the course which fortune allotted me; and now my shade shall descend illustrious to the grave.

[Vixi, et quem dederat cursum fortuna, peregi:
Et nunc magna mei sub terras currit imago.]

Virgil (70-19 BC) Roman poet [b. Publius Vergilius Maro; also Vergil]
Aeneid, Book 4, l. 653 (c. 29-19 BC)
