Greek Anthology 7.22.5-6; cf.
pi 1626. This epigram, like
Greek Anthology 7.21 (cf.
alpha 4677) an epitaph for
Sophocles, was by implication attributed to
Simias of
Thebes in the
Anthologia Palatina; cf. Gow and Page (vol. I, 178-179) and (vol. II, 514-515). On the problematic ascription of these two epigrams, see
theta 556 note.
