Ne te quidem, Cimo, silentio involvam, qui patri tuo sepulturam voluntariis vinculis emere non dubitasti: nam etsi maximo tibi postea et civi et duci evadere contigit, plus tamen aliquanto laudis in carcere quam in curia adsecutus es: ceterae enim virtutes admirationis tantummodo multum, pietas vero etiam amoris plurimum meretur.
Neither shall I wrap you in silence, Cimon, who did not hesitate to buy burial for your father with voluntary chains. For although it was later your fortune to turn out a very great citizen and general, you gained considerably more glory in the prison than in the senate house. Other virtues only earn much admiration, but piety also earns love and a great deal of it.
