θνητῶν μὲν τέχναις ἀπορούμενος, εἰς δὲ τὸ θεῖον
ἐλπίδα πᾶσαν ἔχων, προλιπὼν εὔπαιδας Ἀθήνας,
ἰάθην ἐλθών, Ἀσκληπιέ, πρὸς τὸ σὸν ἄλσος,
ἕλκος ἔχων κεφαλῆς ἐνιαύσιον, ἐν τρισὶ μησίν.

— Paton edition

Despairing of human art, and placing all my hope in the Divinity, I left Athens, mother of beautiful children, and was cured in three months, Asclepius, by coming to thy grove, of an ulcer on my head that had continued for a year.

Comment

#1

Eschine l'Orateur doit sans doute être identifié avec un des nombreux rhéteurs qui portèrent ce nom, peut-être avec Eschine de Milet, écrivain "politique", contemporain de Sénèque le père ; appartient à la Couronne de Philippe. - Waltz, t. III, p. 186.
