Women’s Chorus - Aristophanes

They're always abusing the women,
As a terrible plague to men:
They say we’re the root of all evil,
And repeat it again and again;

Discourse with Mara - Sisupacala

Setting at Savatthi. Then, in the morning, the bhikkhuni Sisupacala dressed... she sat down at the foot of a tree for the day's abiding.

He measured out - Mencius

He measured out and commenced his spirit-tower;

He measured it out and planned it.

Olympia 12 - Pindar

Daughter of Zeus who sets free, I beseech you, Fortune,
lady of salvation, guard the wide strength of Himera.
By your power are steered fleet ships on the sea,
sudden wars by land, the gatherings heavy
with counsel. Men's hopes, oft in the air,
downward rock again as they shear a heaving sea of lies.
