[9] εἶτα Ζεφύριον ὁμώνυμον τῷ πρὸς Καλύδνῳ: εἶτ᾽ Ἀγχιάλη μικρὸν ὑπὲρ τῆς θαλάττης, κτίσμα Σαρδαναπάλλου, φησὶν Ἀριστόβουλος: ἐνταῦθα δ᾽ εἶναι μνῆμα τοῦ Σαρδαναπάλλου καὶ τύπον λίθινον συμβάλλοντα τοὺς τῆς δεξιᾶς χειρὸς δακτύλους ὡς ἂν ἀποκροτοῦντα, καὶ ἐπιγραφὴν εἶναι Ἀσσυρίοις γράμμασι τοιάνδε ‘Σαρδανάπαλλος ὁ Ἀνακυνδαράξεω παῖς Ἀγχιάλην καὶ Ταρσὸν ἔδειμεν ἡμέρῃ μιῇ. ἔσθιε πῖνε παῖζε, ὡς τἆλλα τούτου οὐκ ἄξια,’ τοῦ ἀποκροτήματος. μέμνηται δὲ καὶ Χοιρίλος τούτων: καὶ δὴ καὶ περιφέρεται τὰ ἔπη ταυτί “ ταῦτ᾽ ἔχω, ὅσσ᾽ ἔφαγον καὶ ἀφύβρισα, καὶ μετ᾽ ἔρωτος
τέρπν᾽ ἔπαθον, τὰ δὲ πολλὰ καὶ ὄλβια κεῖνα λέλειπται.
