  • unde et ubi: (Latin) whence and where → in this context, ubi can also mean whither??
  • Urbi et Orbi: (Latin) To the City and To the World → a standard opening of Roman imperial proclamations, now used to denote a papal address and Apostolic Blessing that is addressed to the City of Rome and to the entire world, expecially those on Easter Sunday and Christmas Day

The comments in capital letters at the right of the page are in the pompous style of Shaun, while the comments in italics on the left hand side of the page are in the mocking style of Shem.
