Texts

εἴ με φιλεῖς, ἔργῳ με φίλει, καὶ μὴ μ᾽ ἀδικήσῃς,
ἀρχὴν τοῦ βλάπτειν τὴν φιλίαν θέμενος.

πᾶσι γὰρ ἀνθρώποισιν ἐγὼ πολὺ κρέσσονα φημι
τὴν φανερὰν ἔχθραν τῆς δολερῆς φιλίας.

φασὶ δὲ καὶ νήεσσιν ἁλιπλανέεσσι χερείους
τὰς ὑφάλους πέτρας τῶν φανερῶν σπιλάδων.

— Paton edition

If thou lovest me, love me indeed, and do me no
evil, making friendship the beginning of injury. For
I say that for all men open enmity is much better
than deceptive friendship. They say, too, that for
seafaring ships sunken reefs are worse than visible
rocks.
