I’d have shared your fate: one pain, one sword, one instant should have taken us.
A goated line that recalls Aeneas' words in Troy to his father:
"Come what may, we’ll share one danger,
or one escape."
And Andromache after the death of Hector:
“Hector, my life is over. You and I
were both born for this self-same destiny."
(Homer's "Iliad", Book 22, Emily Wilson translation)
