Texts

γαῖα Ταραντίνων, ἔχε μείλιχος ἀνέρος ἐσθλοῦ
τόνδε νέκυν. ψεῦσται δαίμονες ἁμερίων
ἦ γὰρ ἐὼν Θήβηθεν Ἀτύμνιος οὐκέτι πρόσσω
ἤνυσεν, ἀλλὰ τεὴν βῶλον ὑπῳκίσατο:

ὀρφανικῷ δ᾽ ἐπὶ παιδὶ λιπὼν βίον, εὖνιν ἔθηκεν
ὀφθαλμῶν. κείνῳ μὴ βαρὺς ἔσσο τάφος.

— Paton edition

Terra di Taranto, serba d'un uomo dabbene la salma!
Dèmoni degli efimeri, mendaci!
Ecco: partitosi Atimnio di Tebe, non fece cammino,
ma prese, sotto le tue zolle, stanza.
Privo l'orfano figlio lasciò, morendo, di luce.
Tomba, il tuo peso su lui non gravi!

— Pontani, Filippo Maria (1978-81) (ed.): Antologia Palatina, 4 vols., Torino.
