There to be guest of Nicias, guest of one

Who heals all sickness; and who still reveres

Him, for his sake this cedarn image rears.

The sculptor's hand right well did Nicias fill;

And here the sculptor lavished all his skill.

Ortho's Epitaph.

Friend, Ortho of Syracuse gives thee this charge:

Never venture out, drunk, on a wild winter's night.
