Texts


λεπτὸς ἀνὴρ δέμας ἦν — εἰ μὴ προσέχῃς, ἀπόχρη μοι:
Στράτωνα τοῦτ᾽ οὖν φημί γε,
Λάμψακος ὃν ποτ᾽ ἔφυσεν ἀεὶ δὲ νόσοισι παλαίων
θνῄσκει λαθὼν, οὐδ᾽ ᾔσθετο.

— Paton edition

Era un uomo sottile... Se non t'interessa, la smetto.
Stratone dico. A Làmpsaco
nacque. La vita non fu che una lotta continua coi morbi.
Morì senz'avvedersene.

λεπτὸς ἀνὴρ δέμας ἦν εἰ μὴ προσέχῃς , ἀπόχρη μοι :
Στράτωνα τοῦτ οὖν φημί γε ,
Λάμψακος ὃν ποτ ἔφυσεν ἀεὶ δὲ νόσοισι παλαίων
θνῄσκει λαθὼν , οὐδ ᾔσθετο .

This Strato to whom Lampascus gave birth was
a thin man ( I don ' t mind if you don ' t attend . I
assert this at least ) . He ever fought with disease and
died without feeling it .
