Your memorable sayings are proverbs of ashes, Your defences are defences of clay.

Your wise sayings are only dust, and your strong places are only earth.

τα απομνημονευματα σας ισοδυναμουσι με κονιορτον, τα προπυργια σας με προπυργια χωματος.

Your remembrances are like unto ashes, your bodies to bodies of clay.
