τὸν δ' ἠμείβετ' ἔπειτα Γερήνιος, ἱ̈ππότα Νέστωρ:
ᾤ μοι. Τυδέος υἱὲ δαΐφρονος, οἷον ἔειπες:
εἴ περ γάρ σ' Ἕκτωρ γε κακὸν καὶ ἀνάλκιδα φήσει:
ἀλλ' οὐ πείσονται Τρῶες, καὶ Δαρδανίωνες.
καὶ Τρώων ἄλοχοι μεγαθύμων ἀσπιστάων.
τάων ἐν κονίῃσι βάλες θαλεροὺς παρακοίτας:
And in answer to him spake the horseman, Nestor of Gerenia: "Ah me, thou son of wise-hearted Tydeus, what a thing hast thou said! For though Hector shall call thee coward and weakling, yet will not the Trojans or the Dardanians hearken to him, nor the wives of the great-souled Trojans, bearers of the shield, they whose lusty husbands thou hast hurled in the dust."
