"The lord of distant archery, Apollo,
answered:
"Lord of earthquake, sound of mind
you could not call me if I strove with you
for the sake of mortals, poor things that they are.

men flourish on the ripe wheat of the grainland,

while he is alive, and all will mock his memory after death.

his guests will carry his fame across the earth
and people all will praise him from the heart.
