Allow me
..
Allow me,my God,
to say something of my intelligence,
which was your gift to me,
and of how I wasted it on mere stupidities.

I remember how I was set some work,
which was troublesome enough to my spirit,
but it was a matter which would be rewarded either
by praise or by disgrace,
and indeed one might have to fear a beating too.
..
The work set was that I should declaim a speech
supposed to be made by Juno when she was sad
and indignant at the fact that she was unable.
