O you who claim, in childish spite, that you have reviled me—
you have only hurried good to me, dear brother.

Were I to answer your abuse with another born of it,
I would be clothing you in reward and drawing sin upon myself.

Thus you, though now set against me,
have become dearer to me than my own honored self.
