Aesop's Fables (Chambry edition)Chambry 284 = Perry 194 [...] (variant version from Chambry's first edition) Γεωργὸς καὶ πελαργός.Ἀρούρῃ παγίδας γεωργὸς ἐστήσατο κατὰ τῶν τὸν σπόρον βιβρωσκομένων γεράνων. Σὺν αὐταῖς οὖν εἰλήφει καὶ πελαργόν. Ὁ δὲ θερμῶς ἠντιβόλει τοῦ ἀφεθῆναι· Οὐ γάρ εἰμι γέρανος, ἔλεγεν, ἀλλὰ πελαργός, τὸ εὐσεβέστατον ζῷον καὶ τοῖς πατράσιν εὐνοϊκώτατον. Ἰδὲ γάρ μου καὶ τὴν χροιὰν ὡς ὀυχ ὁμοία ἐκείναις. Ὁ δὲ ἔφη· Οὐκ οἶδα τί λέγεις. Ἔγωγε σὺν αὐταῖς σε κατέσχον καὶ τὴν ὁμοίαν ψῆφον ἐπιτάξαι σοι μέλλω.Ὅτι ἐπισφαλὲς τὸ συγκοινωνεῖν κακοῖς καὶ ἐπικίνδυνον. Chambry published a multivolume edition of the fables for the Belles Lettres series in 1925/6 (Paris). He later revised this into a single volume, omitting hundreds of the fable variants. In addition, the numeration between these two volumes is not consistent. The texts here are taken from the 1925/6 edition, but the numeration follows the stanard single volume edition. |
