Je was op zoek naar: to the last he took no more charge of his spe... (Engels - Latijn)

and elisha saw it, and he cried, my father, my father, the chariot of israel, and the horsemen thereof. and he saw him no more: and he took hold of his own clothes, and rent them in two pieces.
heliseus autem videbat et clamabat pater mi pater mi currus israhel et auriga eius et non vidit eum amplius adprehenditque vestimenta sua et scidit illa in duas parte

after returning to his friend, god promised that he would give midas a gift. "i will give you whatever you want," said the king. midas replied to the god: "turn all that i touch into gold." though the god was sad, because midas was so stupid, he gave him the gift which he had requested. the king departed rejoicing. he took off a branch from the tree, and immediately became a golden branch. when he touched the door of his house, there was also a golden door. even the water in which he placed his hand was of gold. thus the king hoped that he would soon become very wealthy.
amico reddito deus promisit se donum midae daturum esse. ‘tibi dabo’ inquit rex ‘quidquid vis’. midas deo respondit : ‘omnia quae tango in aurum verte’. quamquam deus tristis fuit quod midas tam stultus erat, ei donum quod petiverat dedit. rex abiit gaudens. ramum ab arbore abripuit : statim ramus aureus factus est. ubi ianuam domus suae tetigit, ianua quoque aurea fuit. etiam aqua in qua manum posuit aurea fuit. ita rex sperabat se mox divitissimum futurum esse.
