	Τέρμ' ἴδ' ἔλαβε μόγῳ ῥα ἀγάκλυτος ἥδ' Ὀδύσσεια
	βίβλος γ', ἥντινα γέγραφε Παλαγᾶνος χέρ' ἰδίῃ,
	ὅς ῥα μάλ' ἀσκηθεὶς ᾗ πατρίδι γαίᾳ Ἱδρούσῃ
	Μουσάων γόνος εὐφραδέως τελέθων ἐνέφηνε·
	διστρισχίλι' ἐτάων προθεόντων ἑπτακοσίων,
	εἰνάτῳ ἐπὶ τοῖσδέ γ' ἔτει συνέποντί νυ μᾶλλον,
	μηνὶ ἂρ αὐγούστῳ, ἰνδικτιόνι τε τετάρτῃ.
