A Fragment of Archilochos

ΚΗΛΕΙΤΑΙΔΟΤΙΣΕΣΤΙΝΑΟΙΔΑΙΣ
κηλεῖται δ᾽ ὅτις ἐστιν ἀοιδαῖς

[Whoever exists is enchanted by song]


I've always liked this line. I discovered it some time ago in the edition of his fragments with commentary by William Harris. He comments on the structure of the line: the two ordinary words on the inside with two syllables each, and the two more colorful tri-syllabic words at the extremities, each with two diphthongs and a circumflex accent.
