	περὶ τῆς ἐνταύθα ματαιότητος, ἡρωϊκοὶ στίχοι+

	Εἰπὲ ποῦ ἡ χθὲς ἔβη‧ ἡ δ’ αὔριον εἰπὲ ποῦ ἐστιν:
	εἰπέ δ’ ὅθεν προέβης καὶ ποῦ ὁδοιπορέεις:
	καὶ τί μέγα ζώειν τὸν αὐτίκα νεκρὸν ἐόντα:
	Ὁ χρόνος ἀπατέει· φύλλῳ ἔοικε φύσις:
	γαῖα βροτὸς κ(αὶ) ὕδωρ· τὰ δ’ ἀπ’ αὐτόφ(ιν) ἐς τάδε δύνει:
	ὥστε μάτην ὁ βίος κ(αὶ) ὅσα τις πονέει+
