“Egad, a base tone denotes a bad age.”
Here is the most remarkable Latin palindrome on record:—
SATOR AREPO TENET OPERA ROTAS
Its distinguishing peculiarity is that the first letters of each successive word unite to form the first word, the second letters spell the second word, and so on throughout the five words; and as the whole sentence is a perfect palindrome, this is also true on reversal.
