On Plato's "Phaedo"
Texts
εἴ με Πλάτων οὐ γράψε, δύω ἐγένοντο Πλάτωνες.
— Paton edition
Σωκρατικῶν ὀάρων ἄνθεα πάντα φέρω:
ἀλλὰ νόθον μ᾽ ἐτέλεσσε Παναίτιος. ὃς ῥ᾽ ἐτέλεσσε
καὶ ψυχὴν θνητήν, κἀμὲ νόθον τελέσει.
If Plato did not write me there were two Platos,
— Paton edition
for I have all the flowers of the Socratic dialogues.
But Panaetius made me out to be spurious. He
who made the soul out to be mortal will make me
spurious too.¹
