From the John Scully and C.J. Herington translation of Aeschylus’s Prometheus Bound:
What’s more, for them I invented
NUMBER: wisdom
above all other.
And the painstaking, putting together of
LETTERS: to be their memory
of everything, to be their Muses’
mother, their
handmaid!
But above all, number. Thanks to Virginia Postrel for the pointer.
