Zeno fr. 274 Von Armin (in Dio Chrisostom 53.4)
γέγραφε δὲ καὶ Ζήνων ὁ φιλόσοφος εἴς τε τὴν Ἰλιάδα καὶ τὴν Ὀδύσσειαν, καὶ περὶ τοῦ Μαργίτου δέ· δοκεῖ γὰρ καὶ τοῦτο τὸ ποίημα ὑπὸ Ὁμήρου γεγονέναι νεωτέρου καὶ ἀποπειρωμένου τῆς αὑτοῦ φύσεως πρὸς ποίησιν.
Zeno the philosopher has also written on the Iliad and the Odyssey, and about the Margites as well; for it is reckoned that this poem too was composed by Homer, when he was still young and trying out his natural inclination towards poetry.
