Be not for ever harassed by impotent desire.
Wisdom at times is found in folly.
He will be loved when dead, who was envied when he was living.
Sweet and glorious it is to die for our country.
Undeservedly you will atone for the sins of your fathers.
Alas, Postumus, the fleeting years slip by, nor will piety give any stay to wrinkles and pressing old age and untamable death.
