Πήδασον δ' ὰρ' ἔπεφνε Μέγης Ἀντήνορος υἱὸν.
ὅς ῥα νόθος μὲν ἔην: πύκα δ' ἔτρεφε δῖα Θεανὼ
ἶσα φίλοισι τέκεσσι: χαριζομένη πόσεϊ ᾧ:
τὸν μὲν Φυλείδης δουρὶ, κλυτὸς ἐγγύθεν ἐλθὼν
βεβλήκει κεφαλῆς κατὰ ϊνίον ὀξέϊ δουρί:
ἀντικρὺ δ' ἂν' ὀδόντας, ὑπὸ γλῶσσαν τάμε χαλκός:
ήριπε δ' ἐν κονίης. ψυχρὸν δ' έλε χαλκὸν ὀδοῦσιν:
And Pedaeus, Antenor's son, was slain of Meges; he was in truth a bastard, howbeit goodly Theano had reared him carefully even as her own children, to do pleasure to her husband. To him Phyleus' son, famed for his spear, drew nigh and smote him with a cast of his sharp spear on the sinew of the head; and straight through amid the teeth the bronze shore away the tongue at its base. So he fell in the dust, and bit the cold bronze with his teeth.
