Whoever, fleeing marriage and the sorrows that women cause, does not wish to wed comes to a deadly old age.

Whoever has trusted a woman has trusted deceivers.

Whoever, fleeing marriage and the sorrows that women cause, does not wish to wed comes to a deadly old age.

Happy is the man whom the Muses love: sweet speech flows from his mouth.
