Do not grieve so much for a husband lost that it wastes away your life.
Alas!-but why Alas? It is the lot of mortality we experience.
New faces have more authority than accustomed ones.
The mob gets out of hand, runs wild, worse than raging fire, while the man who stands apart is called a coward.
Bodies devoid of mind are as statues in the market place.
What greater pain could mortals have than this: To see their children dead before their eyes?
