слышали ли вы о четвертом полном стихотворении Сапфо, недавно найденном?
http://www.the-tls.co.uk/this_week/story.aspx?story_id=2111206

есть ли у кого греческий оригинал?

от текст который я нашла

"[You for] the fragrant-blossomed Muses' lovely gifts
[be zealous,] girls, [and the] clear melodious lyre:

[but my once tender] body old age now
[has seized;] my hair's turned instead of dark;

my heart's grown heavy, my knees will not support me,
that once on a time were fleet for the dance as fawns.

This state I oft bemoan; but what's to do?
Not to grow old, being human, there's no way.

Tithonus once, the tale was, rose-armed Dawn,
love-smitten, carried off to the world's end,

handsome and young then, yet in time grey age
o'ertook him, husband of immortal wife."
Одно лекарство от несчастья мне: каша.
