o quantum terrae, quantum cognoscere caeli permissum est! pelagus quantos aperimus in usus! nunc forsan grave reris opus; sed laeta recurret cum ratis et caram cum iam mihi reddet Iolcon, quis pudor heu nostros tibi tunc audire labores! quam referam visas tua per suspiria gentes!    Nec passus rex plura virum sat multa parato in quaecumque vocas; nec nos, ait, optume, segnes credideris patriisve magis confidere regnis quam tibi, si primos duce te virtutis honores carpeve, fraternae si des adcrescere famae.
Lo! What an enormous amount of land and immense sky is given to us to explore! We are opening new paths of the sea for great purposes! Perhaps at this moment, you believe the labor to be too difficult. However, when we return home aboard the ship, joyfully and with my beloved Iolcos, you will be ashamed to hear of all the struggles and efforts we faced. You will sigh as I speak of all the nations we visited!' The prince did not allow him to continue, saying, 'Enough! I am willing to do whatever you call me to do. And please do not think, my friend, that I am lazy, nor do I trust my father's kingdom more than you. Allow me to learn under your guidance and achieve success, growing to be as famous as my cousin.'
