Re: Describing pictures
Φύλλα δροσερὰ καὶ ἀράχνιον.
Τῶν δ' ἐπὶ τὰ φύλλα σταγονιδίων συμπυκνουμένων, αἱ σταγόνες καταρέουσιν. ἀκτινοβολούντων δὲ τῶν ἐπὶ τὸ ἀράχνιον τὴν νύκτα προελθόντων, μετὰ βραχὺ ἐξελεύσεται πάλιν ὁ ἀράχνης τοῦ ἀγρεύειν.
Some words.
ἀράχνιον, τό, spider's web.
φύλλον, τό, leaf.
σταγών, ἡ, drop.
ἀκτινοβολεῖσθαι, receive (energy from) the sun's rays.
προέρχομαι, come forth, appear, be produced.

Λέγει αὐτῇ ὁ λύκος, Κοράσιον, ποῦ ὑπάγεις;
Ἀπεκρίθη αὐτῷ ἡ παῖς, ὑπάγω ἐπισκέπτεσθαι τὴν μάμμην μου.
Λέγει αὐτῇ πάλιν ὁ λύκος, τὶ φέρεις αὐτῇ;
Ἀποκαλύπτουσα κατ' ὀλίγον τὴν σπυρίδα αὐτῆς εἶπεν αὐτῷ, ἀναφέρω αὐτῇ ἄρτον καὶ γάλα νέον.
