Good Fortune Is A God Among Men,

Every Ruler Is Harsh Whose Laws Is New.

For This Our Task Hath Fate Spun Without Fail To Last For Ever Sure, That We On Man Weighed Down With Deeds Of Hate Should Follow Till The Earth His Life Immure. Nor When He Dies Can He Boast Of Being Truly Free.

For The Impious Act Begets More After It, Like To The Parent Stock.

Making It A Valid Law To Learn By Suffering.

For Wherein Is Life Sweet To Him Who Suffers Grief?
