| Comment | A Latin translation above this epigram in elegiacs supports the definition of this fragment as written in elegiacs, although the metre of the Greek epigram is faulty. The Latin translation runs thus: 'Iratus recolas q(uod) nobilis ira leonis in s(ibi) prostratos deneat e(ss)e fera(m)'. |
