always remembering that it is a nobler thing to exchange a mortal body for immortal glory, and to purchase with a life which at best we shall retain for only a few years a fame which will abide with our descendants throughout all the ages[*]a far nobler course than to cling greedily to a little span of life and cover ourselves with great disgrace!
