Προκατείλημμαί σε, ὦ Τύχη, καὶ πᾶσαν 〈τὴν〉 σὴν παρείσδυσιν ἐνέφραξα. καὶ οὔτε σοὶ οὔτε ἄλλῃ οὐδεμιᾷ περιστάσει δώσομεν ἑαυτοὺς ἐκδότους· ἀλλ’ ὅταν ἡμᾶς τὸ χρεὼν ἐξάγῃ, μέγα προσπτύσαντες τῷ ζῆν καὶ τοῖς αὐτῷ κενῶς περι πλαττομένοις ἄπιμεν ἐκ τοῦ ζῆν μετὰ καλοῦ παιῶνος ἐπιφωνοῦντες ὡς εὖ ἡμῖν βεβίωται.
