Help please!

I am in the midst of writing a paper on the pre-pauline use of the topos
"X died /gave him(her)self for Y", so I'm seeking any and all instances
of this topos in Greek literature written before or contemporary with
Paul's time.

I'd be grateful, therefore, if List members could point me towards any
instances in this literature in which the phrases -- or variants of the
phrases --  APOQNHSKEIN hUPER (i.e., APOQANEN hUPER. APOQANEN PERI,
etc. and the composite verb hUPERAPOQNHSKEIN) and (EPI)DIDONAI hEAUTON
hUPER appear.

Thanks in advance.

Yours,

Jeffrey,
