    Stronger than thunder's winged force
    All-powerful gold can speed its course;
    Through watchful guards its passage make,
    And loves through solid walls to break.
    [Lat., Aurum per medios ire satellites
    Et perrumpere amat saxa potentius
    Ictu fulmineo.]

How quickly nature falls into revolt
When gold becomes her object!
For this the foolish overcareful fathers
Have broke their sleep with thoughts, their brains with care.
Their bones with industry.
For this they have engrossed and piled up
The cankered heaps of strange-achieved gold;
For this they have been thoughtful to invest
Their sons with arts and martial exercises.
