The English equivalent of the Latin phrase 'decori decus' is the following: the beauty of beauty. For the word 'decori' is in the genitive case of possession. It literally means 'grace' or 'propriety'. The word 'decus' refers to 'distinction, glory, grace, honor, or that which adorns or beautifies'.
