δ1070Δίκαιος
just
[Epidaurios], in Aeschylus' words, 'wishing not to seem but to be just, reaping the harvest of his mind's truly deep furrow.' Comedy calls the just man not civilized, nor even sophisticated.
Δίκαιος· κατὰ τὸν Αἰσχύλον οὐ δοκεῖν δίκαιος, ἀλλ' εἶναι θέλων, βαθεῖαν τῷ ὄντι καὶ αὐτὸς αὔλακα διὰ φρενῶν καρπούμενος. ὅτι ἡ κωμῳδία τὸν δίκαιον οὐ πολιτικὸν οὐδ' ἥμερον καλεῖ.
