The opening
Soc. Welcome, Ion. Where have you come from now, to pay us this visit? From your home in Ephesus?
Ion. No, no, Socrates; from Epidaurus and the festival there of Asclepius.
Soc. Do you mean to say that the Epidaurians honor the god with a contest of rhapsodes also?
Ion. Certainly, and of music in general.
The whole book is in the Sphinx app.
