Thence, to behold his glorious festival, + 

To Corinth’s mountain-ridge he bore him on. + 

No praise of song is sweet alike to all: + 

If I retrace all fame Melesias won + 

Through boys, no stone at me let envy fling! + 

I sing of honours no less high attained + 

At Nemea, and of crowns pankratian sing + 

By his men gained. + 
