Pulvis et umbra sumus.

We are but dust and shadow.

Book IV, ode vii, line 16.Horace
Stat magni nominis umbra.
Marcus Annaeus Lucanus
Non nobis solum nati sumus.
Cicero
Nos numerus sumus et fruges consumere nati.
Horace
Withdrawn and ruinous it broods in umbra: the immemorial masonry: the towers, the tracks. Is all corroding? No. Through an avenue off spires a zephyr floats; a bird whistles; a freshet bears away from a choked river.
Mervyn Peake
