[PW] A Latin "stumper"

[Sylvia Milne]

Right, let's have Latin translations for all of those including "Those who 
enter, please wipe their feet".
BTW, the inscription over the gate of Hell is in yer Italian and not yer 
Latin and reads.

Lasciate ogni speranza, voi ch'entrate"
which translates more as "leave behind any hope, you who enter"
