“κακους δε θνητων εξεφην', οταν τυχη,
προσθεις κατοπτρον, ωστε παρθενος νεα,
χρονος .”
Eurip. Hip. 429.

Eurip. Hip. 429.
Time holds to me his silent glass,
Wherein myself I view,
As there from sin to sin I pass,
An image sad and true.
Wherein myself I view,
As there from sin to sin I pass,
An image sad and true.
And since that now to manhood grown
I bear no goodly sign,
Hath God's displeasure o'er me gone,
I hasten to decline.
