Horace

“ Let a hardy lad learn well and happily,
through fierce training, to suffer constricting poverty
and let he, who must be feared, harry the fierce Parthians
on horseback with his spear,
and let him lead his life outdoors, in dangerous
situations. Seeing him from the enemy walls,
May the mother of a warlike tyrant,
And his adult daughter,
sigh "Alas, may my royal husband,
unskilled in harsh battles,
not enrage that rough lion by touch, whom bloody
anger seizes in the midsts of slaughter." ”

“ dulce et decorum est pro patria mori: ”

“ I will forbid the man who reveals
the right of secret Ceres, to be
beneath the same roof, and
to untie a fragile boat with me; often Jupiter,
neglected, adds the innocent to the wicked,
but Punishment, on limping foot,
has rarely forgotten a previous crime. ”
