Perry 424: Aesopus apud Corinthos

You can find out more at the Perry 424 page at Aesopica.net. Perry reserves 424 for a joke reported in Diogenes Laertius, Vitae Philos. II.5.42: Aesop once said to the dwellers in the city of Corinth, 'Judge not virtue by popular standards.' (Socrates is the supposed source of this report.)
