Death & Dying
Book VIII, 109: On the Same
Translated by W. R. Paton (1916–18) · From The Greek Anthology (Loeb, vol. II, 1917)
Death & Dying
War not with the dead (the living are enough for you, ye evil-doers), war not with the dead, This I enjoin on all men. It is not right to grudge the dead their little stones.
