Socrates Prayer to Pan




Socrates' Prayer to Pan  appears at the end of the Phaedrus.

Here's the Greek Text.


φίλε Πάν τε καὶ ἄλλοι ὅσοι τῇδε θεοί δοίητε μοι καλῲ γενέσθαι τἄνδοθεν.
Ἔξωθεν δὲ ὅσα ἔχω, τοῖς ἐντὸς εἶναι μοι φίλια.
Πλούσιον δὲ χρυσοῦ πλῆθος, εἴη μοι,
ὅσον μήτε φέρειν, μήτε ἄγειν δύναιτ' ἄλλος ἢ ὁ σωφρον.
