| Ὑμνῶ τὸν ὑψίζυγον ἐν πρώτοις Δία, | |
| Φοῖβον δ' ἔπειτα καὶ τρίτην τὴν Ἄρτεμιν. | |
| Δῆλον τετάρτην, εἶτα λουτρὰ Παλλάδος, | |
| ἕκτην δὲ τὴν Δήμητραν τὴν παλαιτέραν. | |
| μέλπω δὲ γραὸς τῆς φιλοξένου τρόπη. | |
| καὶ τὴν τελευτέαν τὲ τὴν ἄγραν. | |
| καὶ τῶν μεγίστων αἰτίων τὴν τετράδα. | |
| σκώπτω δ’ ἐπ’ ἀραῖς ἴβον ἀπολλώνιον | |
| καὶ τὴν ἀθηνᾶν ὕστατον μέλπω πάλιν | |
| γρίφω βαθίστω καὶ δυσευρήτιος λόγοις. |

Cano gubernatorem supremum in primis Iovem, Phoebum deinde, tertiam Dianam, Apollinem quartum, postea lavacra Palladis, sextam vero Cererem antiquam. Cano autem vetulae hospitalis mensam, et mortem et ferae capturam; et maximarum causarum quaternam seriem. Irrideo vero imprecationibus Ibin Apollonium, et postremo Minervam iterum cano, enigmate profundo et non obviis verbis. |
