Οὐδεὶς δὲ λύχνον ἅψας, εἰς κρυπτὸν τίθησιν, οὐδὲ ὑπὸ τὸν μόδιον, ἀλλὰ ἐπὶ τὴν λυχνίαν, ἵνα οἱ εἰσπορευόμενοι τὸ φέγγος βλέπωσιν. Ο λύχνος τοῦ σώματός ἐστιν ὁ ὀφθαλμός· ὅταν οὖν ὁ ὀφθαλμός σου ἁπλοῦς ᾖ, καὶ ὅλον τὸ σῶμά σου φωτεινόν ἐστιν· ἐπὰν δὲ πονηρὸς ᾖ, καὶ τὸ σῶμά σου σκοτεινόν. Σκόπει οὖν μὴ τὸ φῶς τὸ ἐν σοὶ, σκότος ἐστίν. Εἰ οὖν τὸ σῶμά σου ὅλον φωτεινὸν, μὴ ἔχον τι μέρος σκοτεινὸν, ἔσται φωτεινὸν ὅλον, ὡς ὅταν ὁ λύχνος τῇ ἀστραπῇ φωτίζῃ σε.

Εἶπε δὲ ὁ Κύριος πρὸς αὐτόν· Νῦν ὑμεῖς οἱ Φαρισαῖοι τὸ ἔξωθεν τοῦ ποτηρίου καὶ τοῦ πίνακος καθαρίζετε· τὸ δὲ ἔσωθεν ὑμῶν γέμει ἁρπαγῆς καὶ πονηρίας. Αφρονες, οὐχ ̓ ὁ ποιήσας τὸ ἔξωθεν, καὶ τὸ ἔσωθεν ἐποίησε; Πλὴν τὰ ἐνόντα δότε ἐλεημοσύνην· καὶ ἰδοὺ, πάντα καθαρὰ ὑμῖν ἐστιν. Αλλ' οὐαὶ ὑμῖν τοῖς Φαρισαίοις, ὅτι ἀποδεκατοῦσε τὸ ἡδύοσμον καὶ τὸ πήγανον καὶ πᾶν λάχανον, καὶ παρέρχεσθε τὴν κρίσιν καὶ τὴν ἀγάπην τοῦ Θεοῦ· ταῦτα ἔδει ποιῆσαι, κἀκεῖνα μὴ ἀφιέναι. II.

LERICHE, B.A. [Candidates must satisfy the Examiner in at least two parts of this paper.] I. Translate into English : 1. L'Afrique, qu'on a reconnue être beaucoup plus petite que l'Asie, est la contrée qu'on a le moins explorée. Cependant une partie de cette terre s'est enorgueillie d'être les délices du monde, et un de ses peuples nous a donné les premières notions des sciences. L'Egypte, en effet, a été le berceau des connaissances humaines, et la côte de Barbarie s'est vu surnommer le jardin du monde pendant toute la période qu'a duré la fortune de Carthage et de Rome. Les Egyptiens, à l'orient, avaient rempli le monde du bruit de leur sagesse, de leurs lois et de leurs travaux. Les Carthaginois, à l'occident, se sont rendus encore plus célèbres par leurs richesses et leurs victoires. On les a vus disparaître les uns et les autres sous la puissance romaine. Celle-ci a succombé ellemême sous les coups des barbares, qui se sont laissé vaincre à leur tour par d'autres barbares. C'est ainsi que les générations se sont succédé parmi les peuples aussi bien que parmi les hommes. 2.

Translate into French : While overlooking the construction of a battery, which the enemy endeavoured to interrupt by their fire, Bonaparte called for some one who could write, to dictate an order. Instantly a young man stepped out of the ranks, and resting his paper on the breastwork (parapet), began to write. A shot from the enemy's battery covered the letter with earth the moment it was finished. "Thank you," said the military Secretary, "we shall want no sand to dry the ink." The gaiety and courage of the remark drew Bonaparte's attention to the young man, who became the celebrated Marshal Junot, Duc d'Abrantès. |
