Salvete Sodales!
FELICES DIES NATALIS : KALENDAS IUNIAS MMDCCLVI
Tomorrow marks SVR's second anniversary as an internet community, something for all of us to celebrate. Nothing that the founders or officers of SVR might point to as achievements, as measures of our success,.would be possible without the conviviality that has been created by all of SVR's members.
Tomorrow when we lay a wreath on our altar to honour the genius of SVR it will be with a fond smile and a little smirk. Libations we will pour to the gods and goddesses who watch over our societas, asking with a little laughter that They come and share in our community. In Their honour we will attend the Ludi where the brothers Draco, Gnaeus and Tiberius, will put on chariot races. Perhaps in the Forum the candidates Romulus Orcus and Alexander Hellenos will be debating on a rectorship. We will stop in at the taverna to imbibe our wines while listening to Curio and Marius tell another story, or perhaps visit the confabularium for a little chat with Locatus. Then we will seek out Mus holding a symposium with himself over a few steins, or seek Allegra and Diana dancing with the Muses beneath the stars. With much happiness may the gods and goddesses look down upon all sodales of SVR.
FELIX VIVATIS ANIMA
