ἔνδησον ὦ βέλτιστε τῷ
ξένῳ καλῶς τὴν ἐμπολὴν
οὕτως ὅπως
ἂν μὴ θέρων κατάξῃ.
ἐμοὶ μελήσει ταῦτʼ, ἐπεί
τοι καὶ ψοφεῖ λάλον τι καὶ
πυρορραγὲς
κἄλλως θεοῖσιν ἐχθρόν.
τί χρήσεταί ποτʼ αὐτῷ;
πάγχρηστον ἄγγος ἔσται,
κρατὴρ κακῶν, τριπτὴρ δικῶν,
φαίνειν ὑπευθύνους λυχνοῦχος
καὶ κύλιξ—
καὶ πράγματʼ ἐγκυκᾶσθαι.
