Look at you, my boy, how handsome and tall you are
Be strong, so that future generations may speak well of you.

Nestor to Athena:
Lady be gracious, and give me noble fame,
to me, and to my children and to my modest wife.

I give counsel to my people to respect,
neither anarchy nor despotism.

Orestes to Athena:
Hail Goddess, and to the people of the City;
may you always defeat your enemies,
with a spear of salvation and victory!
