Simple Is The Speech Of Truth.

Wiles And Deceit Are Female Qualities.

Hungry Wailing Standeth Not Aloof.

His Resolve Is Not To Seem The Bravest, But To Be.

The Best By Far Is To Marry In One's Own Rank.

Of All The Gods, Death Only Craves Not Gifts: Nor Sacrifice, Nor Yet Drink-offering Poured Avails; No Altars Hath He, Nor Is Soothed By Hymns Of Praise. From Him Alone Of All The Powers Of Heaven Persuasion Holds Aloof.
