Πολύχροε ποικιλόμορφε πτανό[πους θεά,]
θνατοῖς συνομέστιε, παγκρατὲς Τύχα,
πῶς χρὴ τεὰν ἰσχύν τε δεῖξαι καὶ κ̣ρ̣άτ̣[ος;]
τὰ μὲν ὑψιφαῆ καὶ σεμνὰ .........[]
ὑπήρικας ποτὶ γᾶν νέφος ἀμφιθηκαμένα̣ ......
τὰ δὲ φαῦλα καὶ ταπεινὰ πολλάκις πτερο[ῖ]σ[?]
εἰς ὕψος ἐξάειρας, ὦ δαῖμον μεγάλα.
πότερόν σε κλῄζωμεν Κλωθὼ κελαιν[άν]
ἢ τὰν ταχύποτμον Ἀνάγκαν
ἢ τὰν ταχυάγγελον Ἴριν ἀθανάτων;
πάντων γὰρ ἀρχὰν καὶ τέλος αἰὲν ἔχεις.
