Νὺξ μὲν ἀναπαύει, ἡμέρα δ' ἔργον ποιεῖ → Nam nox quietem praebet, facit opus dies → Die Nacht lässt unsre Arbeit ruhn, der Tag sie tun

Menander, Monostichoi, 385

Greek (Liddell-Scott)

ἀχερωίς: -ίδος, ἡ, ἀλλαχοῦ καλουμένη λεύκη, Ἰλ. Ν. 389., Π. 482· (ἐκ τοῦ Ἀχέρων, διότι ἐπιστεύετο ὅτι ἐκομίσθη ἐκ τοῦ κάτω κόσμου ὑπό τοῦ Ἡρακλέους, Παυς. 5. 14, 2· πρβλ. Νικ. Ἀλεξιφ. 13, Ἀχ. ὄχθαι): «τὴν δὲ λεύκην πεφυκέναι φασὶ πρὸς τῷ Ἀχέροντι, ὅθεν καὶ ἀχερωΐδα καλεῖσθαι παρ’ Ὁμήρῳ» Ἁρπ. ἐν λέξει λεύκη.
