"Revocate animus maestum que mitite forta set ecq olim meminize juvabit" I don't know if I have spelled everything perfect, but I tried to read the handwriting as best as possible. I tried the google translation and it translated only part of it..."Dismiss sad that it happened, but the fear..." that is as far as I got. Can someone please help me translate this?
@Latinconfused,
Can you provide any context?
Shame on me for not recognizing this at once.
Revocate animos, maestumque timorem mittite;
forsan et haec olim meminisse iuvabit.
This is from Book I of Virgil's Aeneid.
Recall your spirits (Take courage), and dismiss your sad fear;
perhaps one day it will be pleasing to remember even these things.
@Latinconfused,
You should use google translate
@selectmytutor,
The translation from Google Translate may be inaccurate.
Always have a knowledgeable person review it!
