ὡς φάτο. καὶ Παιήον'. ἀνώγειν, ἰ̈ήσασθαι:
τῷ δ' ἐπὶ Παιήων ὀδυνήφατα φάρμακα πάσσεν:
ἠκέσατ' οὐ μὲν γάρ τι καταθνητός γ' ἐτέτυκτο
ὡς δ' ὅτ' ὀπὸς γάλα λευκὸν ἐπειγόμενος συνέπηξεν
ὑγρὸν ἐὸν: μά´λα δ' ῶκα περιτρέφεται κυκόωντι:
ὡς ἄρα καρπαλίμως ἰ̈ήσατο θοῦρον Ἄρηα:
τὸν δ' Ἥβη λοῦσεν: χαρίεντα δὲ εἵματα ἕσσε:
πὰρ δὲ Διὶ̈ Κρονίωνι καθέζετο κύδεϊ γαίων:
He spake, and bade Paeëon heal his hurt; and Paeëon spread thereon simples that slay pain, and healed him; for verily he was in no wise of mortal mould. Even as the juice of the fig speedily maketh to grow thick the white milk that is liquid, but is quickly curdled as a man stirreth it, even so swiftly healed he furious Ares. And Hebe bathed him, and clad him in beautiful raiment, and he sate him down by the side of Zeus, son of Cronos, exulting in his glory.
