Εἰκὸς δέ που τὸν Γ λαῦκον, εἴπερ ἦν Ἱππολόχου τοῦ Βελλεροφόντου τοῦ Σκύφου τοῦ Αἰόλου, ἀγαθῶν ἁπάντων, ἐντυχόντα ἀνδρὶ ἐχθρῷ δο ‖ κοῦντι κατὰ τὴν τοῦ πολέμου τύχην, φίλῳ δὲ κατὰ τὴν τῶν πατέρων ξενίαν, ζυμβαλλόμενον φιλίαν αὖθις καὶ ἀνακαλούμενον τὴν προγενῆ οἰκειότητα, συμμετρήσασθαι τῷ καιρῷ καὶ μὴ τῇ ἀξίᾳ τῶν ὅπλων τὴν ἀπαλλαγήν, μὴ λογισμοὺς συντιθέντα χρυσοῦ καὶ χαλκοῦ, καθάπερ οἱ ἐκ Λήμνου οἰνιζόμενοι, ἄλλοι μὲν χαλκῷ, ἄλλοι δʼ αἴθωνι σιδήρῳ, ἄλλοι δὲ ῥινοῖς, ἄλλοι δʼ αὐτοῖσι βόεσσι.
