Let jealousy depart at death, let the feud be buried in the tomb.

Let us not show such an example of cruelty as to persecute one another's dust, though hatred has come between us in our lives.

It will be a boast for the victor if he has borne his beaten foe in a lordly funeral.

For the man who pays the rightful dues over his dead enemy wins the goodwill of the survivor; and whoso devotes gentle dealing to him who is no more, conquers the living by his kindness.

Also there is another disaster, not less lamentable, which sometimes befalls the living--the loss of some part of their body; and I think that succor is due to this just as much as to the worst hap that may befall.
