"Cleobulus, the son of Euagoras, was born at Lindus, but according to Duris he was a Carian.
Who, if he trusts his wits, will praise Cleobulus the dweller at Lindus for opposing the strength of a column to ever-flowing rivers, the flowers of spring, the flame of the sun, and the golden moon and the eddies of the sea?
One sire there is, he has twelve sons, and each of these has twice thirty daughters different in feature; some of the daughters are white, the others again are fl; they are immortal, and yet they all die.

 Bryn Mawr Classical Review 2000.06.07
She is right to resist projecting modern theoretical constructs onto the ancients, but goes too far in viewing the various phases of the progression from orality to literacy as a steady process of decline.
She concludes that Anacreon's Song for Cleobulus is part of the proposis at a Dionysiac symposion, representing the words that accompanied a ritual gesture of offering a cup to a fellow symposiast in a first act of symbolic sharing.
Anacreon's Cleobulus song at least preserves the statement (the address to the beloved), while Catullus 50 transmits only the memory of the event and the absence of the beloved in a written statement, which involves the fiction of two real scriptural practices, the letter and the epigram.

 Diogenes Laertius Lives of the Philosophers: Cleobulus, translated by C.D. Yonge
BY DIOGENES LAERTIUS, TRANSLATED BY C.D. CLEOBULUS was a native of Lindus, and the son of Evagoras; but according to Duris he was a Carian; others again trace his family back to Hercules.
Cleobulus composed songs and obscure sayings in verse to the number of three thousand lines, and some say that it was he who composed the epigram on Midas.
And the epigram cannot possibly be by Homer, for he lived many years, as it is said, before Midas.
