Nikola Subic Zrinski or the Fall of Siget - Translation to English


A play by Stjepan Marjanovic, 1840

Stat sua cuique dies; breve et irreparabile tempus.
Оmnibus est vitae: sed faman extendere factis, hoc virtutis opus.
 - Virgilius.

Each man has his appointed day: short and irreparable in the brief life of all,
 but to extend our fame by our deeds, this is the work of mankind.
 - Virgil
