PHILIPP. Epinom. 990 A σοφώτατον ἀνάγκη τὸν ἀληθῶς ἀστρονόμον εἶναι, μὴ τὸν καθ’ Ἡσίοδον ἀστρονομοῦντα καὶ πάντας τοὺς τοιούτους οἶον δυσμάς τε καὶ ἀνατολὰς ἐπεσκεμμένον, ἀλλὰ κτλ.

CALLIM. ep. 27 Ἡσιόδου τό τ’ ἄεισμα καὶ ὁ τρόπος· οὐ τὸν ἀοιδῶν ἔσχατον, ἀλλ’ ὀκνέω μὴ τὸ μελιχρότατον τῶν ἐπέων ὁ Σολεὺς ἀπεμάξατο· χαίρετε λεπταὶ ῥήσιες, Ἀρήτου σύντονος ἀγρυπνίη.
