I came home quite excited with photos of it to share with my husband and he said "oh that's Desiderata. The whole 1600s thing is completely made up you know" and the wind was knocked out of my sails!!!

I had a parchment-printed version up on my wall. <br /><br />Somewhere along the way, I think that Telly Savalis did a particularly corny version of it and National Lampoon also did a nonsensical satire called <a href="http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=UJJBtmhRRl8" rel="nofollow">Detiorata</a>.<br /><br />I haven't read/heard Desiderata in a long time.
