Ubi idem et maximus et honestissimus amor est, aliquando praestat morte jungi, quam vita distrahi → Where indeed the greatest and most honourable love exists, it is much better to be joined by death, than separated by life.

Valerius Maximus, De Factis Dictisque

Greek (Liddell-Scott)

Κᾰπᾰνεύς: έως, ὁ, εἷς τῶν ἑπτὰ ἐπὶ Θήβας, πιθανῶς ἐκ τῆς √ΚΑΠ, καπνός, ἕνεκα τοῦ χαρακτῆρος αὐτοῦ, ἴδε Αἰσχύλ. Θήβ. 425 κἑξ. Σοφ. Ἀντ. 135.
