Dean Swift's epitaph

Swift's Epitaph as rendered by W.B. Yeats:- Swift has sailed into his rest; Savage indignation there Cannot lacerate his Breast. Imitate him if you dare, World-Besotted Traveler; he Served human liberty.

The original Latin version of Swift's epitaph Hic depositum est Corpus IONATHAN SWIFT S.T.D. Hujus Ecclesiæ Cathedralis Decani, Ubi sæva Indignatio Ulterius Cor lacerare nequit, Abi Viator Et imitare, si poteris, Strenuum pro virili Libertatis Vindicatorem.

Obiit 19º Die Mensis Octobris A.D. 1745 Anno Ætatis 78º.

Literal Translation Here is laid the Body of Jonathan Swift, Doctor of Sacred Theology, Dean of this Cathedral Church,

where fierce Indignation can no longer injure the Heart. Go forth, Voyager, and copy, if you can, this vigorous (to the best of his ability) Champion of Liberty.

He died on the 19th Day of the Month of October, A.D. 1745, in the 78th Year of his Age.
