Father Zeus, if of your good will you gods have brought me over land and sea to my own country, when you had afflicted me sore, let some one of those who are awaking utter a word of omen for me within, and without let a sign from Zeus be shown besides.
&quot; Ζεῦ πάτερ , εἴ μ' ἐθέλοντες ἐπὶ τραφερήν τε καὶ ὑγρὴν ἤγετ' ἐμὴν ἐς γαῖαν , ἐπεί μ' ἐκακώσατε λίην , φήμην τίς μοι φάσθω ἐγειρομένων ἀνθρώπων ἔνδοθεν , ἔκτοσθεν δὲ Διὸς τέρας ἄλλο φανήτω . &quot;
&quot; Ζεύς πατήρ , εἰ ἐγώ ἐθέλω ἐπί τραφερός τε καί ὑγρός ἄγω ἐμός εἰς γαῖα , ἐπεί ἐγώ κακόω λίαν , φήμη τις ἐγώ φημί ἐγείρω ἄνθρωπος ἔνδοθεν , ἔκτοσθε δέ Ζεύς τέρας ἄλλος φαίνω . &quot;
