Living Dog better than a dead Lion

For an answer to my Query at Vol. i., pp. 352. 371., where I asked for the authority upon which Baunez gave *Homer* credit for the expression (which is evidently none of his), "quod leoni mortuo etiam lepores insultant," a friend has referred me to *Antholog. Græc.*. 8vo. Lipsiæ, 1794, tom. iv. p. 112.; out of which you may, perhaps, think it not too late to insert the following Epigr. xi. "Ὡς ἀπὸ Ἕκτορος τιτρωσκομένου ὑπὸ Ἑλλήνων, Βάλλετε νῦν μετὰ πότμον ἐμὸν δέμας. ὅττι καὶ αὐταὶ Νεκροῦ σῶμα λέοντος ἐφυβρίζουσι λαγωοί."
