Gardner, Percy: Sculptured tombs of Hellas (London, 1896)

Few griefs and many joys my life has held,

Out-lengthened to the utmost bounds of eld.

My name is Symmachus, in Chios born,

Which rich with grapes the branching vines adorn ;

But when I died, my bones were hidden here,

In Attic land, to gods and men most dear.

Athenian Epitaph.
