Sapiens Patiens
Id patiamur onus quod non mutare valemus;
Ferre quod impositum est est sapientis onus.
Source: Anton Moker (1540-1605), Decalogus Metricus. Meter: Elegiac. Note the use of the hortatory subjunctive, patiamur, "let's endure, let's bear!"
Let us endure the burden (patiamur id onus) which we are not able to change (quod non valemus mutare); to bear (ferre) what is imposed (quod impositum est) is the wise man's burden (est sapientis onus).

valeō valēre valuī: be strong, excel, be valid, prevail; valē: farewell!
