5.1 Fine literature
"My invincible lord, it would be shameful, if I brought nothing at all from those merchandise for which I had been away for so far and so long. As Homer testified: '...it is a shameful thing to tarry long, and return empty.' (Homer, The Iliad, II, 297-298.) In order to avoid being rightfully reproached for this, I have translated a genuinely eloquent speech of Isocrates."
5.2 Literal epigraphy
"How can you get along with your wives?
They wish no stranger, but
a wife being always peaceful. Moreover being virtuous, she is esteemed the
most."
