Chr. a) Ἐπιχάρμου 〈ἥκιστά γ’ ὅσ〉τις δυστυχῶν βίον τ’ ἔχων 〈μηδὲν καλόν〉 τε κἀγαθὸν ψυχᾶι διδῶι, 〈ἐγὼν μὲν αὐτὸ〉ν οὔτι φασῶ μακάριον, 〈φύλακα δὲ μ〉ᾶλλον χρημάτων καλῶν 〈κακὸν〉. b) Εὐριπίδου [fr. 198 N.] εἰ δ’ εὐτυχῶν τις καὶ βίον κεκτημένος μηδὲν δόμοισι τῶν καλῶν θηράσεται, ἐγὼ μὲν αὐτὸν οὔποτ’ ὄλβιον καίω, φύλακα δὲ μᾶλλον χρημάτων δυσδαίμονα.
