”
πρήσσειν ταῦτα γὰρ ὦν ὁ ἐστι προχειρότερον :
οὐχ ὕβρις πίνειν δ᾽ ὁπόσον κεν ἔχων ἀφίκοιο
οἴκαδ᾽ ἄνευ προπόλου, μὴ πάνυ γηραλέος.
ἀνδρῶν δ᾽ αἰνεῖν τοῦτον ὃς ἐσθλὰ πιὼν ἀναφαίνῃ
ὡς οἱ μνημοσύνη, καὶ τόνος ἀμφ᾽ ἀρετῆς.
οὔτι μάχας διέπειν Τιτήνων οὐδὲ Γιγάντων
οὐδέ τι Κενταύρων, πλάσματα τῶν προτέρων,
ἢ στάσιας σφεδανάς,16 τοῖς οὐδὲν χρηστὸν ἔνεστι,
