Note 25 — BOOK VII
William Cowper translation · Edition 2
Καιροσέων δ’ οθονεων ἀπολείβεται ὑγρον ἔλαιον.
Pope has given no translation of this line in the text of his work, but has translated it in a note. It is variously interpreted by commentators; the sense which is here given of it is that recommended by Eustathius.
