Horace, Be resigned to greatness

From Odes: Impios Parrae, Translated by John Conington

Or if your choice be that rude pike,
New barb'd with death, leap down and ask
The wind to bear you. Would you like
The bondmaid's task,
You, child of kings, a master's toy,
A mistress' slave?'" Beside her, lo!
Stood Venus smiling, and her boy
With unstrung bow.

Then, when her laughter ceased, "Have done
With fume and fret," she cried, "my fair;
That odious bull will give you soon
His horns to tear.
You know not you are Jove's own dame:
Away with sobbing; be resign'd
To greatness: you shall give your name
To half mankind."

 Cf. Chaucer, To the end of the world  Bryant, Saintly and criminal 
Hugo, In a grand parliament of intelligence
Andersen, Soon shall the whole world admire thy Psyche
