Ταῦρος εὑρηκὼς κοιμώμενον λέοντα, τοῦτον κερατίσας ἀπέκτεινεν. ἐπιστᾶσα δὲ ἡ ἐκείνου μήτηρ πικρῶς αὐτὸν ἀπεκλαίετο. ἰδὼν δὲ αὐτὴν σύαγρος ὀλοφυρομένην, μακρόθεν ἑστὼς ἔφη πρὸς αὐτήν “ὦ πόσοι ἄρα τυγχάνουσιν ἄνθροποι θρηνοῦντες, ὧν τὰ τέκνα ὑμεῖς ἀπεκτείνατε.”
Οὗτος δηλοῖ ὅτι ἐν ᾧ μέτρῳ μετρεῖ τις ἀντιμετρηθήσεται αὐτῷ.
Ταῦρος
εὑρηκὼς κοιμώμενον λέοντα,
τοῦτον κερατίσας
ἀπέκτεινεν.
ἐπιστᾶσα δὲ
ἡ ἐκείνου μήτηρ
πικρῶς αὐτὸν ἀπεκλαίετο.
ἰδὼν δὲ αὐτὴν σύαγρος ὀλοφυρομένην,
μακρόθεν ἑστὼς
ἔφη πρὸς αὐτήν
“ὦ πόσοι ἄρα τυγχάνουσιν ἄνθροποι θρηνοῦντες,
ὧν τὰ τέκνα
ὑμεῖς ἀπεκτείνατε.”
Οὗτος δηλοῖ ὅτι
ἐν ᾧ μέτρῳ
μετρεῖ τις
ἀντιμετρηθήσεται αὐτῷ.
