Texts


ὤλεο δὴ πατέρων περὶ ληίδα καὶ σύ, Μαχάτα,
δριμὺν ἐπ᾽ Αἰτωλοῖς ἀντιφέρων πόλεμον,
πρωθήβας: χαλεπὸν γὰρ Ἀχαιικὸν ἄνδρα νοῆσαι
ἄλκιμον, εἰς πολιὰν ὅστις ἔμεινε τρίχα.

— Paton edition

Per un bottino di Patre peristi tu pure, Macata,
contrastando gli Etoli in aspra guerra.
Eri un ragazzo. E come pensare ad un prode d'Acaia
fino alle chiome candide superstite?

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