"The Secret Glory", Epilogue, by Arthur Machen
Jowett: Benjamin Jowett, a 19th century English theologican, Anglican cleric, tutor and adminsitrator at Oxford University,England,
quæ sursum est: which is above
Ave, cara sodalitas, ave semper: Farewell, dear fellowship, farewell always
Kevir: given the context of "the great salt slough", this is likely referring to Dasht-e Kevir, the Great Salt Desert in present day Iran. Which makes sense for it to be Iran if we're going to get the Turks and/or Kurds involved. Except, of course, "slough" suggests mud or mire, or swamp or tidal flat. Difficult to know what Machen had in mind given this conflicting information.
