Someone spoke of your death, Heraclitus. 4 It brou · Calímaco

Someone spoke of your death, Heraclitus. 4 It brought me Tears, and I remembered how often together We ran the sun down with talk… somewhere You’ve long been dust, my Halicarnassian friend. But your Nightingales live on. Though the Deathworld Claws at everything, it will not touch them. 3

Calímaco

310ac — 235ac · Cirene

Callimachus was a prominent Hellenistic poet and scholar, active in Alexandria during the 3rd century BC. Known for his extensive literary output and his work as a librarian at the Library of Alexandria, Callimachus is considered one of the founders of Alexandrian poetry. His work, though largely lost, profoundly influenced later Roman literature and is celebrated for its elegance, scholarship, and formal innovation.
