Problema de veritatis et pacis tē syzygia

A metrical explanation epixēgēsis further interpretation of the Gnome of Zechariah, which that most renowned and theodidaktos God-taught Theologian made his own by right of symbol.

Each man’s own pleasure carries him headlong.
Just as a ship tossed on the sea, like one shipwrecked,
Is driven now here, now there by the South Wind,
Now onto the shallows, now onto the Acroceraunian rocks,
Now into Charybdis, now where the rabid pack
Of dogs barks, it goes to its ruin:
Thus the Euripus a strait noted for its turbulent currents, used here as a metaphor for the shifting anxieties of the human soul stirs the anxious hearts of men.
Some love tiaras, others desire trophies:
You may see others finding joy in cultivated estates.
But others search the bowels of their nurturing mother the Earth: or you, Iberian, sift your sands,
And you, Pactolus, sieve your gravel.
Others follow their wicked gluttony,
And Bacchus, the worst of mortals.
Yet with these things they cannot rest:
They see and all who do these things experience
Vanity of vanities.

Therefore, what is the best thing, what good in life
Should you seek, O Man? Grynaeus explains it here,
(That Grynaeus, for whom we pray for the ages of Nestor,
Known beyond the stars: he who is most worthy to sing,
For whom the Andian vein and mouth may be)
