ὡς δ' ὅτ' ἂν ἀΐξῃ νόος ἀνέρος , ὅς τ' ἐπὶ πολλὴν γαῖαν ἐληλουθὼς φρεσὶ πευκαλίμῃσι νοήσῃ ἔνθ' εἴην ἢ ἔνθα , μενοινήῃσί τε πολλά , ὣς κραιπνῶς μεμαυῖα διέπτατο πότνια Ἥρη ·
ὡς δέ ὅτε ἄν ἀίσσω νόος ἀνήρ , ὅς τε ἐπί πολύς γαῖα ἔρχομαι φρήν πευκάλιμος νοέω ἔνθα εἰμί ἤ ἔνθα , μενοινάω τε πολύς , ὡς κραιπνός μέμαα διαπέταμαι πότνια Ἥρα ·
