Once, Zeus the Sun, didst thou carry off from the
stadion, as he was viewing the games, Thales the
sage. I praise thee for taking him away to be near
thee, for in truth the old man could no longer see
the stars from earth.

— Paton edition

Elio Zeus, dallo stadio rapisti Talete sapiente,
spettatore d'un ginnico certame.
Te lo portasti vicino: t'approvo. Era vecchio, e da terra
più non riusciva a scorgere le stelle.

— Pontani, Filippo Maria (1978-81) (ed.): Antologia Palatina, 4 vols., Torino.
