Line Information

• Differences among the manuscripts and editions:
• English translations (Windeatt: 1998): And also, as Zanzis wrote (who was very wise): “The new love often drives out the old”; and a new situation requires new consideration. Remember too, that you’re under an obligation to save your life. By nature such fire must grow cold in the course of time, for since it’s only chance pleasure, some chance event will put it out of your mind.
• Japanese translations (Sasamoto: 2012):  また、大変賢かったゼウクシスが記しているように、「新しき恋は古き恋を駆逐する」のです、新しい状況には新しい考察が要ります。若君はご自分の命を守る義務があることもお考えください。このような情火は時が経つうちにひとりでに冷たくなります。それは偶然の喜びにすぎないのですから、ある偶然の出来事が起これば記憶は追い払われますよ。
• Chinese translations (Fang: 1956):
• 贤明的若齐斯说道，‘新欢常常代替了旧爱’；新的环境需要新的适应。再想，你自己的生命必须珍惜；而你这热烈的情火自有一天会消减。因为原是一时的喜悦，另一时的兴会就可将它逐出脑海。
