My friends, play the man, and take in your hearts shame of other men, and be you mindful, each man of you, of children and wife, of possessions and of his parents, whether in the case of any they be living or be dead.
ὦ φίλοι ἀνέρες ἔστε καὶ αἰδῶ θέσθ' ἐνὶ θυμῷ ἄλλων ἀνθρώπων , ἐπὶ δὲ μνήσασθε ἕκαστος παίδων ἠδ' ἀλόχων καὶ κτήσιος ἠδὲ τοκήων , ἠμὲν ὅτεῳ ζώουσι καὶ ᾧ κατατεθνήκασι ·
ὦ φίλος ἀνήρ εἰμί καί αἰδώς τίθημι ἐν θυμός ἄλλος ἄνθρωπος , ἐπί δέ μιμνήσκω ἕκαστος παῖς ἠδέ ἄλοχος καί κτῆσις ἠδέ τοκεύς , ἠμέν ὅστις ζώω καί ὅς καταθνήσκω ·
