固有名詞

Parca f (genitive Parcae); first declension

1. any one of the Fates (the three goddesses who control destiny)
   • 29 BCE – 19 BCE, Vergilius, Aeneid 1.21–22:

     hinc populum, lātē rēgem bellōque superbum,
     ventūrum excidiō Libyae: sīc volvere Parcās.

     Because these people, wide-ruling and proud in war,
     would come to destroy Libya: The Fates [were] thus to spin.
     (Rome would defeat Carthage in Libya; the Fates spun, measured and cut the metaphorical threads of life. See: Parcae. Notes: regem is an abbreviation of present active participle regentem or regnantem, “ruling”; bello is an ablative of respect, “in respect to war”; excidio is a dative of purpose, “for the destruction.” The grammar and idiom of sic volvere Parcas is variously interpreted, e.g.: “thus the Fates were spinning,” “the Fates had so decreed.”)
