Translation
Son of the advocate Marsos, a Roman governor. [He was] ancestrally Roman, but after his father had migrated to Eleutheropolis, one of the [cities] of the first Palestine,1 he acquired the superior distinction of consular and gubernatorial and patrician ancestry, by favour of the emperor Anastasius.2 He wrote the following books: Paraphrase of Theocritus in iambics, 3150 [lines]; Paraphrase of Apollonius' Argonautica in iambics, 5608; Paraphrase of Callimachus' Hecale and hymns and Aitia and epigrams in iambics, 6810; Paraphrase of Aratus in iambics, 1140; Paraphrase of Nicander's Theriaca in iambics, 1370; and many other paraphrases.
