Ἀλέξανδρος δὲ τῷ Ἡρακλεῖ ἔθυσέ τε καὶ πομπὴν ἔστειλε ξὺν τῇ δυνάμει ὡπλισμένῃ· καὶ αἱ νῆες ξυνεπόμπευσαν τῷ Ἡρακλεῖ, καὶ ἀγῶνα γυμνικὸν ἐν τῷ ἱερῷ καὶ λαμπάδα ἐποίησε· καὶ τὴν μηχανήν, ᾗ τὸ τεῖχος κατεσείσθη, ἀνέθηκεν ἐς τὸν νεὼν καὶ τὴν ναῦν τὴν Τυρίαν τὴν ἱερὰν τοῦ Ἡρακλέους, ἥντινα ἐν τῷ ἐπίπλῳ ἔλαβε, καὶ ταύτην τῷ Ἡρακλεῖ ἀνέθηκεν καὶ ἐπίγραμμα ἐπʼ αὐτῇ, ἢ αὐτὸς ποιήσας ἢ ὅτου δὴ ἄλλου ποιήσαντος, οὐκ ἄξιον μνήμης τὸ ἐπίγραμμα· διὰ τοῦτο καὶ ἐγὼ αὐτὸ ἀναγράψαι ἀπηξίωσα, Τύρος μὲν δὴ οὕτως ἑάλω ἐπὶ ἄρχοντος Νικήτου Ἀθήνησι μηνὸς Ἑκατομβαιῶνος.
