but you are not yet minded to know or learn of anything, till you have furthermore proved your wife, who abides as of old in her halls, and ever sorrowfully for her the nights and days wane, as she weeps.
σοὶ δ' οὔ πω φίλον ἐστὶ δαήμεναι οὐ δὲ πυθέσθαι , πρίν γ' ἔτι σῆς ἀλόχου πειρήσεαι , ἥ τέ τοι αὔτως ἧσται ἐνὶ μεγάροισιν , ὀϊζυραὶ δέ οἱ αἰεὶ φθίνουσιν νύκτες τε καὶ ἤματα δάκρυ χεούσῃ . [0]
σύ δέ οὐ πω φίλος εἰμί δάω οὐ δέ πυνθάνομαι , πρίν γε ἔτι σός ἄλοχος πειράω , ὅς τε τοι αὔτως ἧμαι ἐν μέγαρον , ὀιζυρός δέ ἕ ἀεί φθίω νύξ τε καί ἦμαρ δάκρυον χέω .
