For my husband died in Cyprus, leaving behind five children, whom I scarcely managed to feed by making garlands in the myrtle-wreath market. During that time I kept myself more or less. But now this poet has persuaded men by his tragedies that gods don’t exist, so that I’m not even selling half what I sold before.
