Τανταλὶς ἅδε ποχ᾽ ἁ δίσς1᾽ ἑπτάκι τέκνα τεκοῦσα
γαστρὶ μιῇ, Φοίβῳ θῦμα καὶ Ἀρτέμιδι:

κούρα γὰρ προὔπεμψε κόραις φόνον, ἄρρεσι δ᾽ ἄρσην
δισσοὶ γὰρ δισσὰς ἔκτανον ἑβδομάδας.

ἁ δὲ τόσας ἀγέλας μάτηρ πάρος, ἁ πάρος εὔπαις,
οὐδ᾽ ἐφ᾽ ἑνὶ τλάμων λείπετο γηροκόμῳ:
μάτηρ δ᾽ οὐχ ὑπὸ παισίν, ὅπερ θέμις, ἀλλ᾽ ὑπὸ ματρὸς
παῖδες ἐς ἀλγεινοὺς πάντες ἄγοντο τάφους.
Τάνταλε, καὶ δὲ σὲ γλῶσσα διώλεσε, καὶ σέο κούραν

χἀ μὲν ἐπετρώθη, σοὶ δ᾽ ἔπι δεῖμα λίθος.

Paternité

Paton et Gow attribuent cette épigramme à Antipater de Thessalonique tandis que Waltz préfère Antipater de Sidon.

Voici ce qu'en dit Utet : "Sull'attribuzione del epigramma al Tessalonicese, (...) cfr Gow-Page, Garland, t. II, p. 88 (ma Page, EG, 3836-3845, lo assegna al Sidonio). Più incerto invece il giudizio di Argentieri, Antipatri, pp. 151-153, che per varie ragioni (ampiezza, coloritura dorica, metrica) sembra preferire il Sidonio -- a confermare l'attribuzione contribuiscono anche le analogie con il 132 de Teodorida, imitato dal Sidonio anche in VI.223"
