Maxioms by Homer ("smyrns Of Chios")
For when two
Join in the same adventure, one perceives
Before the other how they ought to read more
For when two
Join in the same adventure, one perceives
Before the other how they ought to act;
While one alone, however prompt, resolves
More tardily and with a weaker will.
In every sorrowing soul I pour'd delight,
And poverty stood smiling in my sight.
In every sorrowing soul I pour'd delight,
And poverty stood smiling in my sight.
Fly, dotard, fly!
With thy wise dreams and fables of the sky.
Fly, dotard, fly!
With thy wise dreams and fables of the sky.
Like strength is felt from hope, and from despair.
Like strength is felt from hope, and from despair.
He is a fool
Who only sees the mischiefs that are past.
He is a fool
Who only sees the mischiefs that are past.
