The Anathemata
Mabinog’s Liturgy (continued)
forty-two come the 7th before the Ides of July since they decreed
Peace in Our Time1
the whole world expectant of war.
David Jones notes
1 Cf. the senatorial decree of July 9, 13 BC, authorizing the building of the Altar of Peace on the Field of Mars at Rome to commemorate the conclusion of war in the West and to symbolize the Augustan pacification of the World. There have been Temples of Peace built in our time also.
