Summary

Description
English: Terminus from Alciato's Emblemata in 1621. Emblema CLVII.

Caption:

QUADRATUM infoditur firmissima tessera saxum,

Stat cirrata super pectore imago tenus, Et sese nulli profitetur cedere: talis Terminus est, homines qui scopus unus agit. Est immota dies, praefixaque tempora fatis,

Deque ferunt primis ultima iudicium.

Translation:

A squared stone is set in the ground, an unshakable cube, and on it stands a curly-headed image, fashioned down to the chest. This declares that it yields to none. Such is Terminus, the one and only goal that governs men. There is an immovable day, times predetermined by fate, and the last times pronounce judgement on the first.
