Athena, lady, you who protect and guide the form of the matter
undivided, you are its own
creator after Poseidon of wide majesty
who draw from you the whole form;
you are the cause of all simultaneously generated movements
you repel the unnecessary from everything
and therefore also from us,
and every time we’ll make mistakes like fools, bring us back,
o Goddess, through intelligence, raising our heart to what is appropriate.
George Gemistos Plethon
