Greek Texts & Translations

ch. 56 5.56.1 Now this was the vision which Hipparchus saw in a dream: in the night before the Panathenaea he thought that a tall and handsome man stood over him uttering these riddling verses: O lion, endure the unendurable with a lion's heart.
No man on earth does wrong without paying the penalty.
5.56.2 As soon as it was day, he imparted this to the interpreters of dreams, and presently putting the vision from his mind, he led the procession in which he met his death. ^note
