Ηi goncin! Can you give me a bridge here? It's quite interesting for me to find that frase, even though from a little research I couldn't find anything..! Maybe I'll remember something if I have it in english..

Hello, Mideia!

Those are the famous words said by the Sphinx at Thebes to all passersby until Oedipus defeated her: "Decipher me, or I'll devour you".
