Aristophanes,
Plutus [
Wealth] 646 (web address 1), with comment from the fuller; see also
omega 214. The term
eu)daimoni/a (
epsilon 3403,
epsilon 3404) means both 'prosperity' and 'happiness'. If someone has 'every possible blessing' (
a)gaqa\ a(/panta) he must, in material terms at least, be happy.
