Adler number: alpha,1352
Translated headword: but not through the disproportion in the foot for the lyre
Vetting Status: high
Translation:
[sc. A saying] in reference to those paying the penalty for a fault other than the ones for which they are themselves being accused and brought forward.
Greek Original:
All' ou dia tên en tôi podi pros tên luran ametrian: epi tôn apo allês aitias opheilontôn timôrian, ê eph' hois. autoi proballontai hoi katêgoroumenoi.
Note:
The headword phrase comes from Plato (or ps-Plato), Clitopho 407C. Its proverbial status, implied by the present gloss, is not borne out by inclusion in the paroemiographic collections, but see Plutarch, Moralia 439C and 534C.
