Again, he says, quoting: \"Now thou didst appear like that fairest of all stars; for the Athenians call thee, Hesperus.\"\nHimerius also refers to an ode which was apparently an imitation of the work of Sappho. The ode has been transcribed by J.A. Symonds.","title":"The Poems of Sappho: 120: Himerius on Sappho","type":"page"}
