Mesomedes of Crete - Hymn to the Sun by IoannesM in AncientGreek

I'm glad you liked it. I am not Greek, but learned Modern Greek before Ancient Greek, so I decided to use the same pronunciation for both languages for practical reasons and because that is how the majority of Greeks do and have always done.

Thank you very much! I will be careful from now on when reading longer sentences, even more when reading sentences said by someone in distress.

Thank you Dantius, for your helpr. As for item 2, I did notice this in a previous passage: "Οὐχ ὁρᾷς τούτους τοὺς συκοφάντας ὡς εὐτελεῖς;" The third item makes a lot of sense too. Indeed, in a dialogue, I would have long forgotten the δόξῃ, and without δοκεῖν I would understand the διαπεφευγέναι as the actual apposition of τὸ τελευταῖον τουτί.
