He the while had gone in pursuit of Cypris with his pitiless bronze, discerning that she was a weakling goddess, and not one of those that lord it in the battle of warriors,—no Athene she, nor Enyo, sacker of cities.
ὃ δὲ Κύπριν ἐπῴχετο νηλέϊ χαλκῷ γιγνώσκων ὅ τ' ἄναλκις ἔην θεός , οὐ δὲ θεάων τάων αἵ τ' ἀνδρῶν πόλεμον κάτα κοιρανέουσιν , οὔ τ' ἄρ' Ἀθηναίη οὔ τε πτολίπορθος Ἐνυώ . [0] [1] [2]
ὁ δέ Κύπρις ἐποίχομαι νηλής χαλκός γιγνώσκω ὅς τε ἄναλκις εἰμί θεός , οὐ δέ θεά ὁ ὅς τε ἀνήρ πόλεμος κατά κοιρανέω , οὔτι τε ἄρα Ἀθήνη οὔτε τε πτολίπορθος Ἐνυώ .
