Vale of Tears Catullus Please Read About Design T-Shirt

Catullus 101 is an elegiac poem written by the Roman poet Gaius Valerius Catullus. It is addressed to Catullus' dead brother or, strictly speaking, to the "mute ashes" which are the only remaining evidence of his brother's body. The tone is grief-stricken and tender, with Catullus trying to give the best gift he had to bestow (a poem) on his brother, who was taken prematurely. The last words, "Hail and Farewell" (in Latin, ave atque vale), are among Catullus' most famous; an alternative modern translation might be "I salute you...and goodbye". The metre is elegiac couplet, which was usually employed in love poetry, such as Catullus' addresses to Lesbia. However, the elegy couplet was originally used by ancient Greek poets to express grief and lamentation, making it an entirely suitable form to express Catullus' mourning. Through many countries and over many seas I have come, Brother, to these melancholy rites, to show this final honour to the dead, and speak (to what purpose?) to your silent ashes, since now fate takes you, even you, from me. Oh, Brother, ripped away from me so cruelly, now at least take these last offerings, blessed by the tradition of our parents, gifts to the dead. Accept, by custom, what a brother's tears drown, and, for eternity, Brother, Sister 'Hail and Farewell'. OR "I salute you...and goodbye". This Latin text text goes under the kneeling vet "Atque in perpetuum frater, soror, ave atque vale" now your understand the the meaning behind the Vale of Tears I added "Sister" "Atque in perpetuum frater, soror, ave atque vale" And forever, brother, sister, hail and farewell.

I designed this shirt and I’m so happy with the print. I bought it in the cheaper shirt available and I bought it 2 sizes bigger because it runs small. It was perfect to wear to church today! It printed out beautifully! I’m so impressed with the quality!
