For whosoever is not ashamed when he is conscious to himself of having committed some base act, how will he be ashamed before him who is ignorant of it?
ὅστις γὰρ αὐτὸς αὑτὸν οὐκ αἰσχύνεται
συνειδόθ᾿ αὑτῷ φαῦλα διαπεπραγμένῳ,
πῶς τόν γε μηδὲν εἰδότ᾿ αἰσχυνθήσεται
συνειδόθ᾿ αὑτῷ φαῦλα διαπεπραγμένῳ,
πῶς τόν γε μηδὲν εἰδότ᾿ αἰσχυνθήσεται
