diapason
ἀλλ' ἐπὶ καὶ θανάτῳ φάρμακον κάλλιστον ἑᾶς ἀρετᾶς ἅλιξιν εὑρέσθαι σὺν ἄλλοις → even at the price of death, the fairest way to win his own exploits together with his other companions | but even at the risk of death would find the finest elixir of excellence together with his other companions | but to find, together with other young men, the finest remedy — the remedy of one's own valor — even at the risk of death
Latin > English (Lewis & Short)
dĭăpāsōn: = διὰ πασῶν (sc. χορδῶν), in music,
I the whole octave, Vitr. 5, 4, 8; Plaut. 2, 22, 20; Mart. Cap. 9, § 944; so too, dĭăpente = διὰ πέντε>, a fifth, Mart. Cap. 9, § 934 al.; dĭătessărōn = διατεσσάρων, a fourth, id. 2, § 107; Vitr. 5, 4, 8; disdĭăpāsōn = δὶς διὰ πασῶν, a double octave, Plin. 2, 22, 20, § 84; Mart. Cap. 2, § 199 al.
