'Phaedrus put into verse the Greek fables--commonly fathered all alike on "Æsop"--which he could find current in his day. The collection is probably much the same as that of the Greek "Demetrius Phalereus" (300 B.C.). From the point of view of both morals and language, the book served admirably for schoolboys, and it is at least one of the main sources of the fables which found their way into England, first with Alfred, and, later, in more force with Caxton's "Æsop"'. =PILPAY= (=BÍDPÁÍ=). =Oriental fabulist.= [1] THE MORALL PHILOSOPHIE OF DONI--drawne out of Ancient Writers ... _Tr._ by Sir T.

The philosophy of P. influenced the poetry of Shelley, and Wordsworth's 'Intimations of Immortality'. His philosophy has affected all subsequent philosophers.
