    Liber Sapientiae

    Wisdom

    10

    Infelices autem sunt, et inter mortuos spes illorum est, qui appellaverunt deos opera manuum hominum: aurum et argentum, artis inventionem, et similitudines animalium, aut lapidem inutilem, opus manus antiquæ.

    But unhappy are they, and their hope is among the dead, who have called gods the works of the hand of men, gold and silver, the inventions of art, and the resemblances of beasts, or an unprofitable stone the work of an ancient hand.

    Infelice autem es, et inter mortuo spe de illos es, qui appella deos operes de manus de homines: auro et argento, de arte inventione, et similitudines de animales, aut lapide inutile, opere manus antiquo.
