To me indeed it seems strange, if any free man has come
 by a possession pleasanter than this, or has found
 out an occupation pleasanter than this or more
 useful for winning a livelihood. Yet again, the earth
 willingly Or
 θεὸς οὖα, 
 is a goddess and. teaches righteousness
 to those who can learn; for the better she is
 served, the more good things she gives in return.
