Ῥωμαίοις.
ἐλθὼν εἰς μέσους καὶ πολλοὺς φονεύσας
ἀνῃρέθη. ὁμοίως δὲ καὶ ὁ υἱὸς αὐτοῦ Δέκιος ἐν τῷ πρὸς Γάλλους
πολέμῳ τοὺς Ῥωμαίους διέσῳσεν ὡς Ἀριστείδης Μιλήσιος
Κυάνιππος γένει Συρακούσιος μόνῳ Διονύσῳ οὐκ
ἔθυεν ὁ δὲ θεὸς ὀργισθεὶς μέθην ἐνέσκηψε,
καὶ ἐν τόπῳ σκοτεινῷ τὴν θυγατέρα ἐβιάσατο Κυάνην ἡ δὲ τὸν δακτύλιον
περιελομένη ἔδωκε τῇ τροφῷ, ἐσόμενον ἀναγνώρισμα. λοιμωξάντων δὲ καὶ
τοῦ Πυθίου εἰπόντος μὲν δεῖν τὸν ἀσεβῆ τροπαίοις θεοῖς; σφαγιάσαι, τῶν
δ᾽ ἄλλων ἀγνοούντων
