Şiir 1

is all that reveals the way of life of departed men to storytellers and singers alike. The kindly excellence of Croesus does not perish,

but Phalaris, with his pitiless mind, who burned his victims in a bronze bull, is surrounded on all sides by a hateful reputation; lyres that resound beneath the roof do not welcome him as a theme in gentle partnership with the voices of boys. The first of prizes is good fortune; the second is to be well spoken of; but a man 95

who encounters and wins both has received the highest garland. 100
