To Athene, the Artisan

These are the tools of Leontikhos, the carpenter: toothed files; swift augers; carpenter's lines; red powder; double-headed hammers; rulers, spotted with red powder; drills; a chisel; a heavy, well-adjusted axe, the queen of all tools; easily turned gimlets; a sharp wimble; four bolt-cutters; and a smoothing-axe.
He dedicated all these to Athene, the graceful artisan, having abandoned his trade.
