Texts

ἦν ἄρα καὶ κάνθωσι Τύχη χαλεπή τε καὶ ἐσθλή,
καὶ Κρόνος ὡρονομεῖ τετραπόδων γένεσιν.
ἐξότε γὰρ καὶ τοῦτον ὄνον χαλεπὸς χρόνος ἔσχεν,
ἐξ ἀλαβαρχείης γραμματικοῦ γέγονεν.

τλῆθι φέρειν λοιπόν, κανθήλιε: γραμματικοῖς γὰρ
οὐδὲ τέλος κριθᾖ, κρῖ δὲ μόνον λέγεται.

— Paton edition

So for mokes, too, there is sinister and good For-
tune, and Saturn rules the nativities of beasts also ;
for ever since evil time befel this donkey, it has
become a grammarian’s instead of being in the
alabarch’s palace. But bear it patiently hence-
forth, donkey; for grammarians crithe (barley) has
no end, but is called only cri.
