Note 140 — BOOK XXIII.
Charles Duke Yonge translation
As the Greek epigram has it—
Τὸν γαίης καὶ πόντου αμειφθείσαισι κελευθοὶς Ναύτην ἠπείρου, πέζόπορον πελάγους.
Thus translated in Bohn's 'Greek Anthology,' p. 25:—
Him, who reversed the laws great Nature gave, Sail'd o'er the continent and walk'd the wave, Three hundred spears from Sparta's iron plain Have stopp'd. Oh blush, ye mountains and thou main!
