I, Schooled In Misery, Know Many Purifying

My Friends, Whoever Has Had Experience Of Evils Knows How Whenever A Flood Of Ills Comes Upon Mortals, A Man Fears Everything; But Whenever A Divine Force Cheers On Our Voyage, Then We Believe That The Same Fate Will Always Blow Fair.

To Many Mortals Silence Great Gain Brings.

Many Among Men Are They Who Set High The Show Of Honor, Yet Break Justice.

Bonds And The Pangs Of Hunger Are Excellent Prophet Doctors For The Wits.

For There Is No Defense For A Man Who, In The Excess Of His Wealth, Has Kicked The Great Altar Of Justice Out Of Sight.
