ἀλλ' ὅτε δὴ τρίτον ἦμαρ ἐυπλόκαμος τέλεσ' Ἠώς , καὶ τότ' ἐγὼν ἐμὸν ἔγχος ἑλὼν καὶ φάσγανον ὀξὺ καρπαλίμως παρὰ νηὸς ἀνήιον ἐς περιωπήν , εἴ πως ἔργα ἴδοιμι βροτῶν ἐνοπήν τε πυθοίμην .
ἀλλά ὅτε δή τρίτος ἦμαρ εὐπλόκαμος τελέω ἠώς , καί τότε ἐγώ ἐμός ἔγχος αἱρέω καί φάσγανον ὀξύς καρπάλιμος παρά ναῦς ἄνειμι εἰς περιωπή , εἰ πως ἔργον εἶδον βροτός ἐνοπή τε πυνθάνομαι .
