“Given that Rorate Coeli and Shea are mad at Fr. Z, I think it proves Fr. Z knows what he is doing and he is right.”

"Let me be clear. Fr. Z is a shock jock, mostly. His readership is vast and touchy. They like to be provoked and react with speed and fury."

So, even satan speaks Latin?
“So, even satan speaks Latin?”
Not only does he speak and understand Latin, he is said (by experienced exorcists) to have contempt for those priests who don’t (and hence attempt to exorcise him using the vernacular).
Um a palindrome reads the same backwards as forwards, right? I am missing something.
Fish eaters translates as such….(“Cross, cross thyself, you plague and vex me without need
For by my labors you shall soon reach Rome, the object of your wishes”)
Supertradmum:
“Signa te signa: temere me tangis et angis” is a palindrome,
as is “Roma tibi subito motibus ibit amor.”
They are palindromes in Latin, not English.
Took me a minute, too. LOL!
Here’s a musical palindrome by JS Bach:

So cool! At first I thought only part of it is a palindrome, but it all is! And Mme. Scherzo–that is *genius*–love it!
There are palindromes where (next to) nothing has to be rearranged – as, put in Napoleon’s mouth or mind, ‘Able was I ere I saw Elba’, and the famous ‘sator arepo tenet opera rotas’ – and ones where, as Wikipedia puts it,”Punctuation, capitalization, and spaces are usually ignored.” In this pair, in the second, only that ‘m’ shifts: some kind of play – an image of zipping along? In the first, a lot more. I wonder how different that would look with different late-antique or mediaeval manuscript conventions of capitalization, punctuation, and spacing?
Checking Wikipedia for possible technical terms in this context of with-or-without changing any details, I find, “Joseph Haydn’s Symphony No. 47 in G is nicknamed ‘the Palindrome’. The third movement, minuet and trio is a musical palindrome.”
Please forgive me Fr. Z, but since others are speaking of musical palindromes I have to give mention to Weird Al’s “Bob”.
Ok, I will slowly back out of the room now…..
Pearl,
Thanks!
