Χορός
ἰὼ ἰώ,
ἔπαγ᾽ ἔπιθ᾽ ἐπίφερε πολέμιον
345ὁρμὰν φονίαν, πτέρυγά τε παντᾷ
ἐπίβαλε περί τε κύκλωσαι:
ὡς δεῖ τώδ᾽ οἰμώζειν ἄμφω
καὶ δοῦναι ῥύγχει φορβάν.
οὔτε γὰρ ὄρος σκιερὸν οὔτε νέφος αἰθέριον
350οὔτε πολιὸν πέλαγος ἔστιν ὅ τι δέξεται
τώδ᾽ ἀποφυγόντε με.
Aristophanes. Aristophanes Comoediae, ed. F.W. Hall and W.M. Geldart, vol. 2. F.W. Hall and W.M. Geldart. Oxford. Clarendon Press, Oxford. 1907.
