ΓΟΡΓΩ.

μὴ λέγε τόν τεόν ἄνδρα, φίλα, Δείνωνα τοιαῦτα,
τῶ μικκῶ παρεόντος· ὅρη, γύναι, ὡς ποθορῇ τυ·
θάρσει, Ζωπυρίων, γλυκερόν τέκος· οὐ λέγει απφῦν.
ΠΡΑΞΙΝΟΑ.

αἰσθάνεται τό βρέφος, καὶ τὰν πότνιαν.

ΓΟΡΓΩ.

ἀπφῦς μὲν τῆνος τὰ πρόανλέγομες δὲ πρόαν θην
πάντα νίτρον καὶ φύκος ἀπὸ σκανᾶς ἀγοράσδων
ἦνθε φέρων ἅλας ἄμμιν, ἀνὴρ τρισκαιδεκάπηχυς.

ΓΟΡΓΩ.

χώμὸς ταῦτά γ ̓ ἔχει, φθόρος ἀργυρίω, Διοκλέιδας·
ἑπταδράχμως κυνάδας, γραιᾶν ἀποτίλματα πηρᾶν,
πέντε πόκως ἔλαβ ' ἐχθές, ἅπαν ρύπον, ἔργον ἐπ ἔργῳ.
ἀλλ ̓ ἴθι, τὠμπέχονον καὶ τὰν περονατρίδα λαζεῦ.
βᾶμες τῷ βασιλῆος ἐς ἀρνειῶ Πτολεμαίω

θασόμεναι τὸν Αδωνιν· ἀκούω χρῆμα καλόν τι

κοσμῖν τὰν βασίλισσαν.

GREEK.

Examiner-C. H. TAWNEY, M. A.

Translate into Greek Iambics :

Neither to this interment called by me
Comest thou, nor thy presence I account
Among the covetable proofs of love.
As for thy tribute of adornment,-no!
Ne'er shall she don it, ne'er in debt to thee
Be buried! What is thine, that keep thou still!
Then it behoved thee to commiserate

When I was perishing; but thou, who stood'st
Foot-free o' the share, was acquiescent then
That I, the young, should die, not thou, the old,—
Wilt thou lament the corpse thyself hast slain ?
Thou wast not, then, true father to this flesh;
Nor she, who makes profession of my birth
And styles herself my mother, neither she
Bore me: but come of slave's blood, I was cast
Stealthily 'neath the bosom of thy wife!

Thou showedst, put to touch, the thing thou art,
Nor I esteem myself born child of thee!
