Nihil nobis paupertatis,
sed ad dives omnia.
When some dissatisfaction was displayed by the poor monks, which the great men treated with contempt, “said the prior to the abbot, ‘They have wine enough; will you give all our drink to the poor? What does their poverty regard us? they have little, and that is enough, since they came uninvited to our feast.’”
Prior dixit ad abbatis,
‘Ipsi habent vinum satis;
Vultis dare paupertatis
noster potus omnia?
Quid nos spectat paupertatis?
Postquam venit non vocatis
ad noster convivia.’
