# Usage
```python
from flair.data import Sentence
from flair.models import SequenceTagger
  
tagger = SequenceTagger.load("UGARIT/flair_grc_bert_ner")
sentence = Sentence('ταῦτα εἴπας ὁ Ἀλέξανδρος παρίζει Πέρσῃ ἀνδρὶ ἄνδρα Μακεδόνα ὡς γυναῖκα τῷ λόγῳ · οἳ δέ , ἐπείτε σφέων οἱ Πέρσαι ψαύειν ἐπειρῶντο , διεργάζοντο αὐτούς .')
tagger.predict(sentence)
for entity in sentence.get_spans('ner'):
    print(entity)
```
