Diogenianus 6.42. See also, and more fully, mu 1478.
[1] cf. 'like candy from a baby' -- the Mysians of NW Asia Minor being (in Greek eyes) proverbially weak fighters. The phrase is used e.g. by Demosthenes 18.72 (On the Crown: Web address 1), of the danger that Hellas would be easy prey for Philip II of Macedonia. It is also used by Aristotle (Rhetoric 1.12.20): "and those who have often been wronged but have not prosecuted, being, as the proverb says, 'Mysians' booty'.”
[2] It is not clear what events are referred to; the writer may have had Demosthenes' speech in mind, or the myth of Telephos (cf. mu 1478). The phrase was also used by the fifth-century comic playwright Strattis (fr.35 Kock = 36 Kassel-Austin) and by Simonides (fr.37 West).
