| Le sort fait les parents, le choix fait les amis—It is to chance we owe our relatives, to choice our friends. | 1 |
| Our relations are ours by lot, our friends by election. | 2 |
| Promettre c’est donner, espérer c’est jouir. | 3 |
| To promise is already to give, to hope already to enjoy. | 4 |
| Tremblez, tyrans; vous êtes immortels—Tremble, ye tyrants; ye cannot die. | 5 |
