I recently came across a photograph of a sundial, made in black
granite - and which had the following Latin inscription, on it:

             TE IMMOBILEM MOBILIS ILLUMINET SOL

Can any of the "classical scholars" on this mailing-list please
tell me what the English 'translation' of that inscription is ?


>From my own (limited) knowledge, it looks a bit like "The Sun
illuminates both the moving and stationary" - or something !


With my grateful thanks in advance, for all replies received.


Sincerely,

Anne Lennon.
