(he means to say Gnesippus):
He likewise has composed songs for the night,
Well suited to adulterers, with which
They charm the women from their doors, while striking
The shrill iambyca or the triangle.
And Cratinus, in his Effeminate Persons, says—
Who, O Gnesippus, e'er saw me in love?
I am indignant; for I do think nothing
Can be so vain or foolish as a lover.
LOVE SONGS.
