Two EPIGRAMS OF ANACREON.

Upon Timocritus.

Timocritus the Bold, the Great, the Brave,
Kill'd in the Field, here triumphs in the Grave.
The Valiant often Dye in martial Strife;
The Cowards Live, their Punishment is Life.

Upon a Statue of MYRO's representing an Ox.

Feed, Cow-Herd, feed thy Oxen far away,
Lest they too nearly should to Myro's stray,
And thou, whose Judgment pardonably err'd,
Drive Home the breathing Statue with the Herd.
