σάνδαλα μὲν τὰ ποδῶν θαλπτήρια ταῦτα Βίτιννα, εὐτέχνων ἐρατὸν σκυτοτόμων κάματον τὸν δὲ φιλοπλάγκτοιο κόμας σφιγκτῆρα Φιλαινίς, βαπτὸν ἁλὸς πολιῆς ἄνθεσι κεκρύφαλον: ῥιπίδα δ᾽ Ἀντίκλεια: καλύπτειραν δὲ προσώπου, ἔργον ἀραχναίοις νήμασιν ἰσόμορον, ἁ καλὰ Ἡράκλεια: τὸν εὐσπειρῆ δὲ δράκοντα, χρύσειον ῥαδινῶν κόσμον ἐπισφυρίων, πατρὸς Ἀριστοτέλους συνομώνυμος: αἱ συνομήθεις ἅλικες Οὐρανίῃ δῶρα Κυθηριάδι.
