Greek Original:*(ruth=ra: e(lktiko/n: para\ to\ e)ru/ein. kai\ fu/laka. kai\ plei/ous i(/ppous paralabw\n a)po\ r(uth=ros e(lkome/nous e)poreu/eto. le/getai kai\ *(ru/twr. *pani\ w(rai/wn r(u/tori boukoli/wn. kai\ au)=qis: ti\ ei)=dos, w)di/nwn r(u/sia decame/nh.
Notes:
[1] Accusative singular of
r(uth/r (cf.
rho 317 and under
rho 320); similarly glossed in
Photius and other lexica; evidently quoted from somewhere. In this sense, the headword is related to
e)ru/w (A) in LSJ; in the second sense, it is related to
e)ru/w (B).
[2] Quotation (and individual) unidentifiable.
[3] cf.
rho 319.

Greek Anthology 6.274.4 (
Perses), reading
*tisi/dos instead of
ti\ ei)=dos. On this epigram, a giving of thanks after childbirth, see Gow and Page (vol. I, 156) and (vol. II, 448-449). The goddess to whom the dedication is made is not named, but Artemis is a distinct possibility, as 'Eilethuia' is one of her cult-titles; cf. Gow and Page (vol. II, 448).
