Τὸν δ' ἠμείβετ' ἔπειτα Γερήνιος ἱππότα Νέστωρ:
διογενὲς. Λαερτιάδη. πολυμήχαν' Ὀδυσσεῦ.
μὴ νεμέσα: τοῖον γὰρ ἄχος βεβίηκεν Ἀχαιούς:
ἂλλ' ἕπευ, ὄφρα καὶ ἄλλον ἐγείρομεν ὅν τ' ἐπέοικε
βουλὰς: βουλεύειν ἢ φευγέμεν ἠὲ μάχεσθαι:
Then made answer to him the horseman, Nestor of Gerenia: "Zeus-born son of Laërtes, Odysseus of many wiles, be not thou wroth, for great sorrow hath overmastered the Achaeans. Nay, follow, that we may arouse another also, whomsoever it behoveth to take counsel, whether to flee or to fight."
