Iliad 2: 638-644

From the Venetus A MS

Αἰτωλῶν δ' ἡγεῖτο Θόας Ἀνδραίμονος υἱὸς:

οἱ Πλευρῶν' ἐνέμοντο. καὶ Ὤλενον. ἠδὲ Πυλήνην:

Χαλκίδα τ' ἀγχίαλον. Καλυδῶνά τε πετρήεσσαν:

οὐ γὰρ ἔτ' Οἰνῆος μεγαλήτορος υἱέες ἦσαν:

οὐδ' ὰρ ἔτ' αὐτὸς έην. θάνε δὲ ξανθὸς Μελέαγρος:

τῷ δ' ἐπὶ πάντ' ἐτέταλτ˙ο ἀνασσέμεν Αἰτωλοῖσι̃:

τῷ δ' ἅμα τεσσαράκοντα μέλαιναι νῆες ἕποντο:

And the Aetolians were led by Thoas, Andraemon's son, even they that dwelt in Pleuron and Olenus and Pylene and Chalcis, hard by the sea, and rocky Calydon. For the sons of great-hearted Oeneus were no more, neither did he himself still live, and fair-haired Meleager was dead, to whom had commands been given that he should bear full sway among the Aetolians. And with Thoas there followed forty black ships.
