Benedicite lux et tenebrae Domino.
Light and shadow bless the Lord.
Lux umbra Dei.
Light is the shadow of God.
Pereant et imputantur.
They perish and are counted up.
"What perish and are counted?"
"The hours," said Theo. "The days, all our time, our times, our journeys round the runs."
Alix said, "I don't like that motto."
"They do perish, though," said Theo. "We can't bring back what has gone."
"Counted," said Matt. "Who counts them?"
"They are counted," said Theo. "Not necessarily against us."
