O Pytheas, still doth thy mother’s brother honour his kin who follow + 

In the steps of one of the selfsame blood. Upon thee did Nemea smile, + 

And the Delphian festal month of Aegina, ever-beloved of Apollo. + 

Triumphant wast thou o’er thine age-mates all, alike in thy native isle, + 

And by Nisus’ hill of the pleasant glades. I rejoice that for glory’s crown + 

In the lists of honour contendeth still Aegina’s every town. + 

But forget not thy debt to Menander, through whom were thy toils repaid with renown. + 
