θανουμένων ϋπερ “This is the pity, the pity that goes up for those who are about
to die”; Antipho 1.21 ούτος δέ τοΰ μέν τεθνεώτος πέρι ούδέν ύμάς αίτήσεται, ός
άξιος και έλέου και βοήθειας και τιμωρίας παρ’ ύμών τυχεΐν “he requests from you
nothing for the dead man, who deserves your pity and help and revenge”; on the
emotion of pity cf. Walton 1997; Sternberg 2005.
έπιεικής θεός Apollodorus (Bibl. 2.8.1 and 3.7.1) reports that the Heracleidae
had approached the altar of Mercy in Athens; also Adrastus, who was one of the
Seven in the expedition against Thebes, had found refuge at the altar of Mercy in
Athens after the war; cf. Paus. 1.17.1 (with Frazer 1913 nd Zoc.) Άθηναίοις δέ έν τη
αγορά και άλλα έστιν ούκ ές άπαντας επίσημα καιΈλέου βωμός, ω μάλιστα θεών
ές άνθρώπινον βίον και μεταβολάς πραγμάτων δντι ώφελίμω μόνοι τιμάς Ελλήνων
νέμουσιν Αθηναίοι “in the Athenian market-place, amongst other objects which
are not generally known, there is an altar of Mercy, to whom, though he is of all
gods the most useful in human life and in the vicissitudes of fortune, the Athenians
are the only Greeks who pay honour”; cf. D.S. 13.22.7; Philostr. VS 212.3.
2 άνοσιώτατον φθόνος For the association of envy with unholy behavior
cf. X. Cyr. 4.6.4; Pl. R. 580a; Hippoth. TrGFI 210 F 2 φθόνος κάκιστος κάδικώτατος
θεός; cf. TrGF II fr. adesp. 6b; Cyrillus Alexandr. Epist. Pasch. 77.809 άνοσίω
φθόνω διακεκαυμένος τον νοϋν; Glaph. in Pentat. 69.304 άε'ι ό φθόνος άνοσίαν
έχει την έφοδον. For the contradistinction of envy with pity in a forensic context
cf. Fys. 24.2 καίτοι δστις τούτοις φθονεί οΰς οί άλλοι έλεοΰσι, τίνος άν ύμΐν ό
τοιοϋτος άποσχέσθαι δοκεϊ πονηριάς; “and yet, if somebody feels envy for those
whom others pity, what wickedness do you think such a man would abstain from?”.
