‘ {[Ἐνταῦθα πάνυ (I am taking this as an emohasis word, rather than an indeoendent word)] [καπυρὸν] [γελάσας]} {[ἀφίησι φωνήν]} (this fwnhn may be iafter the verb to avoid confusion about which verb it goes with), οἵαν οὔτε χελιδὼν οὔτε ἀηδὼν οὔτε κύκνος, ὁμοίως ἐμοὶ γέρων γενόμενος. ‘Ἐμοὶ μέν, ὦ Φιλητᾶ, φιλῆσαί σε φθόνος οὐδείς: βούλομαι γὰρ φιλεῖσθαι μᾶλλον ἢ σὺ γενέσθαι νέος: ὅρα δὲ εἴ {[σοι] (this may be a complex, embedded structure) [καθ̓ ἡλικίαν] [τὸ δῶρον]}: [2] {[οὐδὲν γάρ σε ὠφελήσει] [τὸ γῆρας] {[πρὸς] [τὸ (not too sure of the break up here) μὴ διώκειν ἐμὲ] [μετὰ] [τὸ ἓν φίλημα]}. Δυσθήρατος ἐγὼ καὶ ἱέρακι καὶ ἀετῷ καὶ εἴ τις ἄλλος τούτων ὠκύτερος ὄρνις. Οὔ τοι παῖς ἐγὼ καὶ εἰ δοκῶ παῖς, ἀλλὰ καὶ τοῦ Κρόνου πρεσβύτερος καὶ αὐτοῦ τοῦ παντός. [3] Καί [σε οἶδα] νέμοντα πρωθήβην [ἐν ἐκείνῳ τῷ ὄρει] [τὸ πλατὺ βουκόλιον] καὶ [παρήμην] [σοι] {[συρίττοντι] [πρὸς] [ταῖς φηγοῖς ἐκείναις] (possibly because this is in third position the demonstrative held to the end is not separated from the group)}, ἡνίκα ἤρας Ἀμαρυλλίδος: ἀλλά {με (positioned in front of the verb because the phrase is in first position, first of one here) οὐχ (this negation seems to be treated as part of the verb here) ἑώρας} καίτοι {[πλησίον (this improper preposition does not follow the rule of breaking because of the article, but here there is an intervening word, mala, which causes the break) μάλα] [τῇ κόρῃ] [παρεστῶτα]}. {[Σοὶ] μὲν οὖν [ἐκείνην] [ἔδωκα]}: καὶ ἤδη σοι παῖδες, ἀγαθοὶ βουκόλοι καὶ γεωργοί: [4] {[νῦν] δὲ [Δάφνιν] [ποιμαίνω] καὶ Χλόην}: καὶ ἡνίκα ἂν {[αὐτοὺς] [εἰς ἓν] [συναγάγω τὸ ἑωθινόν]}(perhaps because it is an articular adjective), εἰς (does this follow a different rule because it is in first position?) τὸν σὸν ἔρχομαι κῆπον καὶ τέρπομαι τοῖς ἄνθεσι καὶ τοῖς φυτοῖς κἀν [ταῖς πηγαῖς ταύταις] (tentatively including the demonstrative with this group, though it may be in second weak position) [λούομαι]. Διὰ τοῦτο {[καλὰ] [καὶ] [τὰ ἄνθη]} καὶ {[τὰ φυτά], [τοῖς ἐμοῖς λουτροῖς] [ἀρδόμενα]}. [5]{ Ὅρα δὲ μή} {[τί] σοι [τῶν φυτῶν] [κατακέκλασται]}, {μή [τις] [ὀπώρα] [τετρύγηται]}, {μή [τις] [ἄνθους] [ῥίζα πεπάτηται]}, {μή [τις] [πηγὴ] [τετάρακται]}, καὶ {[χαῖρε] [μόνος] [ἀνθρώπων]} {[ἐν γήρᾳ] [θεασάμενος] [τοῦτο τὸ παιδίον]}.᾿’’
