Translation

"He in turn was relieved and praised Damas. And he drank to him and was full of erotic hopes."1

Greek original · Adler’s text

Προὔπινεν αὐτῷ· αὐτὸς δὲ πάλιν ἐκουφίζετο καὶ τὸν Δάμαν ἐπῄνει. καὶ προὔπινεν αὐτῷ καὶ μεστὸς ἦν ἐλπίδων ἐρωτικῶν.

Notes (1)

  1. The headword phrase is presumably extracted from the second sentence of the quotation given. For the verb see pi 2906.
  2. 1The first of these sentences has long been regarded as coming from Iamblichus' Babyloniaca (fr. 12 Hercher); Adler tentatively attributed the second to Iamblichus or Aelian; nowadays both sentences are combined as Iamblichus, Babyloniaca fr. 18 Habrich. ↩
