Translation
['It is reserved for jests], it is reserved for abuses, it is reserved for fornicators, [for] dicing tables, [for] symposia': [the idiom] means, in effect, it is strongly attached [to something].
Greek original · Adler’s text
Ἀνάκειται σκώμμασιν, ἀνάκειται λοιδορίαις, ἀνάκειται πόρνοις, κύβοις, συμποσίοις· σημαίνει δὲ τὸ οἷον πρόσκειται ἰσχυρῶς.
