On the Soldier Agathon

Name: Anakreon - On the Soldier Agathon
Author: Willis Barnstone

All members of this village have come to weep

at your funeral pyre, O courageous Agathon,

who died for Abdera:

for in the chaos of the horrible battlefield,

blood-loving Ares never before slaughtered

a more fearless youth.
