he didn't grow little weary of having
to listen to all the verses of which he
was the subject sung by the lesser YER
sifiers of Greece.
After he had attended all the ban
quets in his honor, shaken hands with
all his admirers and been carried
through the breach they had made in the
wall by his fellow citizens, 1t Is not un-
reasonable to suppose that the old
homestead resembled welcome haven
of rest.
As for his more material honors.
when he marched in the sacred revel
back to the temple of Zeus his ad-
mirers sang to him and tossed flowers
and costly gifts in his path.
If the winner was an Athenian he
received. according TO law passed by
Solon 500 drachmae and free meals
for the rest of his life. If he was a
Spartan he received the post Of honor
in battle. This should have enabled him
without loss of time to go up and thank
Zeus personally for his victory. 1t
should be listed rather among the hon
orable than the material rewards.
