This man always used to speak in meter when he was drinking. "Pour (something) for me to drink and (give me) the leg of a partridge." "Let someone give a chamber-pot or let someone give a flat-cake." So Athenaeus [writes] in Deipnosophists.1

Greek original · Adler’s text

Πάμφιλος· οὗτος ἀεὶ ἔμμετρα ἔλεγεν ἐν τοῖς πότοις. ἔγχει πιεῖν μοι καὶ τὸ πέρδικος σκέλος. ἀμίδα δότω τις ἢ πλακοῦντά τις δότω. οὕτως Ἀθήναιος ἐν Δειπνοσοφισταῖς.
