Translation

Meaning let us embark upon the same enterprise. Marsos(?) said this to the emperor Zeno.1 "We will begin this same choral dance a second time."

Greek original · Adler’s text

Τὴν αὐτὴν ταύτην ἀναχορεύσομεν ὄρχησιν· ἀντὶ τοῦ ἐπὶ τὴν αὐτὴν πρᾶξιν ἐπανέλθωμεν. τοῦτο εἴρηκε Μάρσος πρὸς Ζήνωνα τὸν βασιλέα. τὴν αὐτὴν ταύτην καὶ δεύτερον ἀναχορεύσομεν ὄρχησιν.

Notes (1)

  1. Otherwise unattested.
  2. 1For Zeno see generally zeta 83 and zeta 84. The name 'Marsos' here has been treated with suspicion by editors; Adler reports the manuscript variations Malsos and Markos, and notes Bernhardy's suggested emendations Markianos and [mu 120] Malchos. ↩
