Far-reaching power has wealth for him to whom + 

It comes, a gift that Destiny sends + 

With stainless honour linked: so leads he home + 

A charm that wins him friends. + 

Thon, O Arkesilas the heaven-blest, + 

Since from its first steps glory crowned + 

Thy life, hast held that boon of Heaven in quest, + 

Hast sought fair fame, and found, + 

With aid of Kastor of the chariot golden, + 

Who bade the wintry tempest cease, + 

And sheds upon thine hearthstone bliss-enfolden + 

Sunlight of skies of peace. + 
