Hard would it be for one, though never so skilled, unless a god himself should come and easily by his will set it in another place.
χαλεπὸν δέ κεν εἴη καὶ μάλ' ἐπισταμένῳ , ὅτε μὴ θεὸς αὐτὸς ἐπελθὼν ῥηϊδίως ἐθέλων θείη ἄλλῃ ἐνὶ χώρῃ .
χαλεπός δέ ἄν εἰμί καί μάλα ἐπίσταμαι , ὅτε μή θεός αὐτός ἐπέρχομαι ῥᾴδιος ἐθέλω τίθημι ἄλλος ἐν χώρα .
