The tongue of slander is too prompt with wanton malice to wound the stranger.
Base men who prosper are unenviable.
On me the tempest falls. It does not make me tremble. O holy Mother Earth, O air and sun, behold me. I am wronged.
I willingly speak to those who know, but for those who do not know I forget.
