Tangentially related to the "Elephant & Castle" thread . . .

Hey, can anybody help me answer this question:

I'm looking for a Latin inscription on a marble arch, probably either
the Marble Arch or the Wellington Arch (commemerating Waterloo?),
both on the borders of Hyde Park.

I want the full Latin inscription, and a translation would be handy,
too.  Footnotes (wah-hoo) for those who can find what I'm looking
for.

If there is no Latin on either arch, that too is an important data
point.

Thanks in advance!

Ever curious,

=mantis=
