huic parere dati quos fertilis Amphigenia planaque Messene montosaque nutrit Ithome, quos Thryon et summis ingestum montibus Aepy, quos Helos et Pteleon, Getico quos flebile vati Dorion; hic fretus doctas anteire canendo Aonidas mutos Thamyris damnatus in annos ore simul citharaque (quis obvia numina temnat?) conticuit praeceps, qui non certamina Phoebi nosset et illustres Satyro pendente Celaenas.
To his obedience are given they that fertile Amphigenia nurtures and flat Messene and mountainous Ithome, likewise Thryon and Aepy piled on its hilltop and Helos and Pteleon and Dorion weeping for the Getic bard. Here Thamyris, who trusted to surpass the skilled daughters of Aonia in song, was condemned to silent years. His voice and lyre fell suddenly mute, for who should scorn deities to their face? He knew not of Phoebus contest and Celaenae famed for the hanging Satyr.
