O Daughters of Zeus of the Gods most high, + 

Euphrosyne lover of song, and Aglaia, + 

And thou who dost joy in the chant, Thalia, + 

Hearken ye now to our suppliant cry! + 

Look down as our triumphing troop sweeps by, + 

As onward with lightsome foot it is pacing + 

The victor’s fortune of happiness gracing. + 

I come hither the praise of Asopichus singing, + 

In Lydian measure my chant outringing, + 

For that now is the Minyan House victorious + 

By your grace at Olympia. Fly, Echo, telling + 

Unto old Kleodamus the tidings glorious + 

That shall brighten Persephone’s dark-walled dwelling, + 

How his son in the Vale far-famous in story + 

Hath enwreathed his tresses with garlands of glory. + 
