Note 932 — Chapter II · THE SUBJECT OF PLAGIARISMS RESUMED. THE GREEKS PLAGIARIZED FROM ONE ANOTHER.
William Wilson translation
From Jupiter’s address (referring to Pandora) to Prometheus, after stealing fire from heaven. The passage in Hesiod runs thus:
“You rejoice at stealing fire and outwitting my mind; But I will give you, and to future men, a great plague. And for the fire will give to them a bane in which All will delight their heart, embracing their own bane.”
