Arcadiae stirpem et fera semina gentis, non Thebana vides: non me sub nocte silenti Thyias Echionio genetrix famulata Lyaeo edidit, haud umquam deformes vertice mitras induimus turpemque manu iactavimus hastam.
You see before you Arcadias stock, seed of warlike race, not Theban. Me did no Thyiad mother, servant to Echionian Lyaeus, bring forth in the silent night, I never put unsightly turbans on my head or brandished a shameful spear.
