    Ion

    [530a] Socrates

    Welcome, Ion. Where have you come from now, to pay us this visit? From your home in Ephesus?

    Ion

    No, no, Socrates; from Epidaurus and the festival there of Asclepius.

    Socrates

    Do you mean to say that the Epidaurians honor the god with a contest of rhapsodes also?

    Ion

    Certainly, and of music1 in general.

    Socrates

    Why then, you were competing in some contest, were you? And how went your competition?

    Ion

    We carried off the first prize, Socrates.

    1 “Music” with the Greeks included poetry.
