Joannes Barbucollus

From The Greek Anthology translated by James Michie.

Joannes Barbucollus, vii, 555

Looking upon my husband's face, I praised
With my last breath
The gods of marriage and the gods of death -
These that a man so fine
Should be my husband, those that he's still alive.
May he thrive,
The father of the children that we raised,
His and mine.
