on hagel's homeric singing again

Post by chad »

hi guys,

just letting u know that, if u listen to the clips on the homeric singing site (http://www.oeaw.ac.at/kal/sh/) and u can't work out what the first line is, it's

[size=150]ἄρχεο Μοῦσα γέλωτος ὃς ἀθανάτοισιν ἐνῶρτο[/size]

in the Realplayer clip, and

[size=150]ἄρχεο Μοῦσα γέλωτος ὃς ἀθανάτοισιν ἐτύχθη[/size]

in the MP3 clip. they mean

Begin, Muse, of the laughter that rose among the undying

(stefan just emailed me the variant today). cheers, chad. :)
