Of this Kleonikus’ house, e’en let him dare + 

The athlete-strife! Not dulled is yet the fame + 

Of their long toils! Nought for the cost they care: + 

No power hath this their fiery hopes to tame! + 

Yea, also Pytheas do I praise, who schooled unerringly + 

His brother’s hands to deal the blows whereby Phylakidas bare + 

To earth the limbs of rivals⁠—ah, a cunning fighter he! + 

Ho, take for him a crown, and bring the fleecy fillet fair! + 

With song fresh-pinioned speed him on his path of victory! + 
