γίνεται δὲ σημεῖον αὐτῷ τε τῷ Πύρρῳ μέγα,
τῶν γὰρ βοῶν τεθυμένων αἱ κεφαλαὶ κείμεναι χωρὶς
ἤδη τάς τε γλώττας ὤφθησαν προβάλλουσαι
καὶ περιλιχμώμεναι τὸν ἑαυτῶν φόνον, ἔν τε τῇ
πόλει τῶν Ἀργείων ἡ τοῦ Λυκείου προφῆτις
Ἀπόλλωνος ἐξέδραμε βοῶσα νεκρῶν ὁρᾶν καὶ
φόνου κατάπλεω τὴν πόλιν, τὸν δ̓ ἀετὸν ἐπὶ τὸν
ἀγῶνα χωροῦντα, εἶτα φροῦδον εἶναι.
