Aesop's Fables (Chambry edition)Chambry 306 = Perry 83
Πίθηκος καὶ κάμηλος.Ἐν συνόδῳ τῶν ἀλόγων ζώων πίθηκος ἀναστὰς ὠρχήσαστο. Σφόδρα
δὲ αὐτοῦ εὐδοκιμοῦντος καὶ ὑπὸ πάντων ὑποσημαινομένου, κάμηλος φθονήσασα
ἐβουλήθη τῶν αὐτῶν ἐφικέσθαι. Διόπερ ἐξαναστᾶσα ἐπειρᾶτο καὶ αὐτὴ ὀρχεῖσθαι.
Πολλὰ δὲ αὐτῆς ἄτοπα ποιούσης, τὰ ζῷα ἀγανακτήσαντα ῥοπάλοις αὐτὴν παίοντα
ἐξήλασαν. 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. |
