Classic Poem

I, the koronis ( i. e., “finis”), the faithful guardian of the written pages announce the final boundary stone and I say that Meleager has completed in one work the songs which he gathered from all the poets and from those flowers he wove for Diocles this garland of the Muses which shall endure for ever.
And I, curved round like a snake's back, am placed at the end of this pleasant work.
