καὶ τοὺς λάρους, οὓς ἅπαξ εὗρόν ποτε ἐκβεβρασμένους, καὶ τούτους ἀνέπηξα εἰς τὴν δρῦν τὴν ἱερὰν τὴν πλησίον τῆς θαλάττης. μὴ γὰρ εἴη ποτέ, ὦ Ζεῦ, λαβεῖν μηδὲ κερδᾶναι κέρδος τοιοῦτον ἀπὸ ἀνθρώπων δυστυχίας. ἀλλὰ ὠφελήθην μὲν οὐδὲν πώποτε, ἠλέησα δὲ πολλάκις ναυαγοὺς ἀφικομένους, καὶ τῇ σκηνῇ ὑπεδεξάμην, καὶ φαγεῖν ἔδωκα καὶ πιεῖν, καὶ εἴ τι ἄλλο ἐδυνάμην, ἐπεβοήθησα καὶ συνηκολούθησα μέχρι τῶν οἰκουμένων.
