-
here is the noblest prize that a young man can endeavor to win.
-
It is a good thing his city and all the people share with him,
-
when a man plants his feet and stands firm
-
among the foremost spears relentlessly.
-
All thought of foul flight completely forgotten
-
and as well trained his heart to be steadfast and endure,
-
and with words encourages the man who is stationed besides him.
-
Here is a man who proves himself valiant in war.
-
With a sudden rush
-
he turns to fight the rugged battalions of the enemy
-
and sustains the beating wave of assault."

I don't care about any of those things
