Additional quotes by Archilochus of Paros

Father Lykambes, what is this new silliness?
Are your natural brains wholly rotted?
The neighbors laugh openly at your absurd life
and you persist in chattering like a cricket.

She is a common woman for rent,
but what sensuality and fat ankles.
O fat whore for hire!
