Brenton 1851
But they counted our life a pastime, and our time here a market for gain: for, say they, we must be getting every way, though it be by evil means.
Greek · Brenton
Ἀλλʼ ἐλογίσαντο παίγνιον εἶναι τὴν ζωὴν ἡμῶν, καὶ τὸν βίον πανεγυρισμὸν ἐπικερδῆ· δεῖν γάρ φησιν ὅθεν δὴ κᾂν ἐκ κακοῦ πορίζειν.
