Λοκρῶν δ' ἡγεμόνευεν Ὀϊλῆος ταχὺς Αἴας
μείων: οὔ τι τόσος γε ὅσος Τελαμώνιος Αἴας:
ἀλλὰ πολὺ μείων: ὀλίγος μὲν, ἔην λινοθώρηξ.
ἐγχείῃ δ' ἐκέκαστο Πανέλληνας καὶ Ἀχαιούς
οἳ Κῦνόν τ' ἐνέμοντ'. Ὀπόεντά τε Καλλίαρόν τε
Βῆσσάν τε. Σκάρφην τε. καὶ Αὐγειὰς ἐρατεινάς:
Τάρφην τε Θρόνιόν τε Βοαγρίου ἀμφὶ ρέεθρα:
τῷ δ' ἅμα τεσσαράκοντα μέλαιναι νῆες ἕποντο
Λοκρῶν. οἳ νεουσι πέρην ἱ̈ερῆς Εὐβοίης:
And the Locrians had as leader the swift son of Oïleus, Aias the less, in no wise as great as Telamonian Aias, but far less. Small of stature was he, with corselet of linen, but with the spear he far excelled the whole host of Hellenes and Achaeans. These were they that dwelt in Cynus and Opus and Calliarus and Bessa and Scarphe and lovely Augeiae and Tarphe and Thronium about the streams of Boagrius. With Aias followed forty black ships of the Locrians that dwell over against sacred Euboea.
