Love
Book V, 103
Translated by W. R. Paton (1916–18) · From The Greek Anthology (Loeb, vol. I, 1916)
Love
For how long, Prodice, shall I weep at thy door? Till when shall thy hard heart be deaf to my prayers ? Already the grey hairs begin to invade thee, and soon thou shalt give thyself to me as Hecuba to Priam.
