[27] εἰ γοῦν τὸν Ἠλιακὸν Πύλον εἶναί τις τὸν Νέστορος ἐπινοήσειεν, οὐκ ἂν οἰκείως λέγοιτο ἡ ἐντεῦθεν ἀναχθεῖσα ναῦς παρὰ Κρουνοὺς ἐνεχθῆναι καὶ Χαλκίδα μέχρι δύσεως, εἶτα Φεαῖς ἐπιβάλλειν νύκτωρ, καὶ τότε τὴν Ἠλείαν παραπλεῖν: οὗτοι γὰρ οἱ τόποι πρὸς νότον τῆς Ἠλείας εἰσί, πρῶται μὲν αἱ Φεαί, εἶθ᾽ ἡ Χαλκίς, εἶθ᾽ οἱ Κρουνοί, εἶθ᾽ ὁ Πύλος ὁ Τριφυλιακὸς καὶ τὸ Σαμικόν. τῷ μὲν οὖν πρὸς νότον πλέοντι ἐκ τοῦ Ἠλιακοῦ Πύλου οὗτος ἂν ὁ πλοῦς εἴη: τῷ δὲ πρὸς ἄρκτον, ὅπου ἐστὶν ἡ Ἰθάκη, ταῦτα μὲν πάντα ὀπίσω λείπεται, αὐτὴ δ᾽ ἡ Ἠλεία παραπλευστέα ἦν, καὶ πρὸ δύσεώς γε: ὁ δέ φησι μετὰ δύσιν. καὶ μὴν εἰ καὶ πάλιν ὑπόθοιτό τις τὸν Μεσσηνιακὸν Πύλον καὶ τὸ Κορυφάσιον ἀρχὴν τοῦ παρὰ Νέστορος πλοῦ, πολὺ ἂν εἴη τὸ διάστημα καὶ πλέονος χρόνου. αὐτὸ γοῦν τὸ ἐπὶ τὸν Τριφυλιακὸν Πύλον καὶ τὸ Σαμιακὸν ποσείδιον τετρακοσίων ἐστὶ σταδίων: καὶ ὁ παράπλους οὐ παρὰ Κρουνοὺς καὶ Χαλκίδα καὶ Φεάν, ἀδόξων ποταμῶν ὀνόματα μᾶλλον δὲ ὀχετῶν, ἀλλὰ παρὰ τὴν Νέδαν πρῶτον, εἶτ᾽ Ἀκίδωνα, εἶτα τὸν Ἀλφειὸν καὶ τόπους τούτων τοὺς μεταξύ: ὕστερον δ᾽, εἰ ἄρα, κἀκείνων ἐχρῆν μνησθῆναι: καὶ γὰρ παρ᾽ ἐκείνους ὑπῆρχεν ὁ πλοῦς.
