Psychomachia 770-784 Amy Hall<\/a><\/p>\n

pax plenum Virtutis opus, pax summa laborum,
\npax belli exacti pretium est pretiumque pericli.
\nsidera pace uigent, consistunt terrea pace.
\nnil placitum sine pace deo: non munus ad aram
\ncum cupias offerre probat, si turbida fratrem
\nmens inpacati sub pectoris oderit antro,
\nnec, si flammicomis Christi pro nomine martyr
\nignibus insilias seruans inamabile uotum
\nbile sub obliqua, pretiosam proderit Iesu
\ninpendisse animam, meriti quia clausula pax est.
\nnon inflata tumet, non inuidet aemula fratri,
\nomnia perpetitur patiens atque omnia credit,
\nnunquam laesa dolet, cuncta offensacula donat,
\noccasum lucis uenia praecurrere gestit,
\nanxia ne stabilem linquat sol conscius iram.<\/p>\n
