Religion
Book VI, 128
Translated by W. R. Paton (1916–18) · From The Greek Anthology (Loeb, vol. I, 1916)
Religion
Rest in this holy house, bright shield, a gift from the wars to Artemis, Leto’s child. For oft in the battle, fighting on Alexander’s arm, thou didst in comely wise befoul with dust thy golden rim.
