Oh, there are plenty of authorities; but I will specify Aristoxenus the musician, a weighty one enough, and himself attached as a sponger to Neleus. Then you of course know that Euripides held this relation to Archelaus till the day of his death, and Anaxarchus to Alexander.

A great many; among them, Aristoxenus the musician, who deserves great consideration.¹ That Euripides was parasite to Archelaus until he died, and Anaxarchus to Alexander, you surely know.
