Non est turpe ab his vinci ; neque enim minus
fortis sum, si cum invulnerabili me hoste committis,
nec ideo minus ignis urere potest, si in materiam
[p. 300]
incidit inviolabilem flammis, nec ideo ferrum secandi
vim perdidit, si non recipiens ictum lapis solidusque
et invictae adversus dura naturae dividendus est.
Idem tibi de homine grato respondeo. Non turpiter
vincitur beneficiis, si ab his obligatus est, ad quos
aut fortunae magnitudo aut eximia virtus aditum
redituris ad se beneficiis clusit.
L. Annaeus Seneca. Moral Essays: volume 3. John W. Basore. London and New York. Heinemann. 1935.
