Unswerving Honour’s home is there beside the western seas. + 

The Lokrians’ burg. They reverence the Queen of Epic Song + 

And Ares bronze-arrayed. Yea, even mighty Heracles + 

Must needs before your Kyknus flee, a foeman over-strong. + 

To Has let the Olympian victor render thanks this day, + 

Who trained Agesidamus’ hands for that grim gauntlet-play; + 

As oft Patroclus thanked Achilles, saith the old-time story. + 

The man for high achievement born shall win yet higher glory + 

If one with God’s help whet his spirit’s edge to each essay. + 
