DEVIL DICTIONARY

Behavior

n. Conduct, as determined, not by principle, but by breeding. The word seems to be somewhat loosely used in Dr. Jamrach Holobom's translation of the following lines from the _Dies Irae_:


Recordare, Jesu pie,
Quod sum causa tuae viae.
Ne me perdas illa die.


Pray remember, sacred Savior,
Whose the thoughtless hand that gave your
Death-blow. Pardon such behavior.
