Note 455 — Chapter XIII · THE RELIGIOUS ATTITUDE AND MORAL TEACHING OF LUCRETIUS.
Reading edition
'The holy presence of the Gods becomes visible, and their peaceful dwelling-places, which neither the winds beat upon, nor the clouds bedew with rain; nor does snow, gathered in flakes by keen frost, and falling white, invade them; ever the cloudless ether enfolds them, and they are radiant with far-spread light.'—iii. 18-22.
