Classic Poem

The Ace-Dot

What are we to think, O Peisistratos, when we see this die carved upon your tomb, with the Khian dot on top? Not, though it is likely, that you came from, Khios? Or were you a gambler, who never threw a high score? Perhaps you used to soak yourself with pure Khian wine? Yes, I think this is nearer the truth.EnglishLeonidas of Tarentum
