Scholiast on Pindar [* wealth adorned with virtues brings
with it the opportunity for all manner of things*]: The

meaning is: wealth when it is uot alone but decorated with
virtue enjoys in season its own benetits and those of virtue,
having a spirit naturally apt for the search after what is
good, For neither of the two is desirable of itself. Compare
Callimachus . .. , and Sappho:

2 1.6. when she sits down Sef. Parvoem.2. 277 Φ τοῦ,
Plut. δον. ὦ, Sch. Pind. 7. 5. 1: Plut. has ‘high-birth’
instead of ‘wealth, perh. rightly (S. was well-horn, see

p. 143)
