And a hound that lay there raised his head and pricked up his ears, Argos, the hound of Odysseus, of the steadfast heart, whom of old he had himself bred, but had no joy of him, for before that he went to sacred Ilios.
ἂν δὲ κύων κεφαλήν τε καὶ οὔατα κείμενος ἔσχεν , Ἄργος , Ὀδυσσῆος ταλασίφρονος , ὅν ῥά ποτ' αὐτὸς θρέψε μέν , οὐ δ' ἀπόνητο , πάρος δ' εἰς Ἴλιον ἱρὴν ᾤχετο .
ἀνά δέ κύων κεφαλή τε καί οὖς κεῖμαι ἔχω , Ἄργος , Ὀδυσσεύς ταλασίφρων , ὅς ἄρα ποτέ αὐτός τρέφω μέν , οὐ δέ ἀπονίναμαι , πάρος δέ εἰς Ἴλιος ἱρός οἴχομαι .
