I was wondering if this quote could be translated into latin and still hold the meaning that it does. I want to be sure because it is the newest quote that I want to get on my body.
"How happy is the blameless Vestals lot!
The world forgetting, by the world forgot;
Eternal sunshine of the spotless mind!
Each prayer accepted, and each wish resigned."
It is by Alexander pope

hello,

this is my best shot ... if you're gonna get it tatooed, then run it by a few more people.

tam aetas Vestalis innocentis est beata,
mundum obliviscens, a mundo est oblita,
solem incorrupti mentis aeturnum
quaeque precum accepta votorumque acquietum

'ab Alexandro Papa scriptum'
