86 Pellene, Sicyon, have beheld their might—

Æacidae's well-guarded grove,

Eleusis, Megara, where oft in fight,

As oft in splendid Marathon they strove.

Eubœa and the wealthy cities spread

Beneath aspiring Ætna's head.

Through Græcia's realm more wreaths to them belong

Than could be number'd in the poet's song.

Still, mighty Jove, preserve their tranquil state,

And may increasing joys the virtuous race await!
