πυγμῇ νικήσαντα τὸν Ἀντικλέους Μενέχαρμον
λημνίσκοις μαλακοῖς ἐστεφάνωσα δέκα,
καὶ τρισσῶς ἐφίλησα πεφυρμένον αἵματι πολλῷ:
ἀλλ᾽ ἐμοὶ ἦν σμύρνης κεῖνο μελιχρότερον.

— Paton edition

When Menecharmus, Anticles’ son, won the boxing match, I crowned him with ten soft fillets, and thrice I kissed him all dabbled with blood as he was, but the blood was sweeter to me than myrrh.
