nam sicut <ei non licuit>  durare in hanc beatissimi saeculi lucem ac principem Traianum videre, quod augurio votisque apud nostras aures ominabatur, ita festinatae mortis grave solacium tulit evasisse postremum illud tempus, quo Domitianus non iam per intervalla ac spiramenta temporum sed continuo et velut uno ictu rem publicam exhausit.
For though he was not permitted to survive to the light of this happy age, and to see Trajan ruling'a consummation which he foretold in our hearing alike in prayer and prophecy'yet he reaped a great compensation for his premature death, in escaping those last days wherein Domitian no longer fitfully and with breathing spaces, but with one continuous and, so to speak, single blow, poured forth the life-blood of the state.
