Beyond age, leaf withered, man goes three footed no stronger than a child is, a dream that falters in daylight.
. . . it is yours women's to be silent and stay within doors.
Since long I've held silence a remedy for harm.
The laws of a state change with the changing times.
Justice, voiceless, unseen, seeth thee when thou sleepest and when thou goest forth and when thou liest down. Continually doth she attend thee, now aslant thy course, now at a later time. These lines are from a section of doubtful or spurious fragments.
Justice inclines her scales so that wisdom comes at the price of suffering.
