my translation from Homer's Iliad 24:347,8
Βῆ δ' ἰέναι κούρῳ αἰσυμνητῆρι ἐοικώς,
πρῶτον ὑπηνήτῃ, τοῦ περ χαριεστάτη ἥβη. [illiad 24:347,8]
Then Hermes started out to go, looking like a young prince with a
down mustache, whose youthfulness seems exceedingly charming.

excerpt from Zufriedenheit
"Die Wirklichkeit der Thaten geht nich unter,/ Wie Sterne glänzen, giebt ein Leben gross und munter." Friedrich Hölderlin, "Zufriedenheit"
~ The Realness of actions goes not forgotten,/ like stars they shine,/ stimulating life to joy. LXD
