Translation: Meaning [from] a wretched [one].
Aristophanes in
Plutus [uses the phrase]. Alternatively [he is] blaming [them] because of old-age.[1] And elsewhere: "when
Theognis was contending, [Zeus] covered Thrace with much snow and froze the rivers at the same time." This man [
Theognis] was a frigid tragic poet. So in satirizing him [
Aristophanes] offers much snow [as an image] of this man's chilliness in his poems.[2]
