Note 373 — JUVENAL'S SATIRES. (continued 2)

Lewis Evans translation

Crambe. The old Schol. quotes a proverb—δὶς κράμβε θάνατος, Grangæus another, which forcibly expresses a schoolmaster's drudgery—οἰ αὐτοὶ περὶ τῶν αὐτῶν τοῖς αὐτοῖς τὰ ἀυτά.

"Till, like hash'd cabbage, served for each repast, The repetition kills the wretch at last." Gifford.
