Globus Terrestris

Here is today's distich by John Owen, with an English translation by Thomas Harvey, 2.41. The epigram depends on a bit of Latin word play - the watery portion of the earth "manat," "flows," while the earthly portion "manet," abides.

Globus Terrestris
Terra atque unda globum faciunt (quis crederet?) unum.
Scilicet et haec semper manat, at illa manet.

THE TERRESTIAL GLOBE
Of Water and of Earth’s the Globe (Sea, Land)
That movable, this unremov’d doth stand.

Here is the vocabulary:

terra - earth, land
atque - and
unda - wave, water
facio - make, do
quis - who
credo - believe
unus - one
scilicet - you know, of course
