Κῆρυξ
1000ἀκούετε λεῴ: κατὰ τὰ πάτρια τοὺς Χοᾶς
πίνειν ὑπὸ τῆς σάλπιγγος: ὃς δ᾽ ἂν ἐκπίῃ
πρώτιστος, ἀσκὸν Κτησιφῶντος λήψεται. Δικαιόπολις
ὦ παῖδες ὦ γυναῖκες οὐκ ἠκούσατε;
τί δρᾶτε; τοῦ κήρυκος οὐκ ἀκούετε;
1005ἀναβράττετ᾽ ἐξοπτᾶτε τρέπετ᾽ ἀφέλκετε
τὰ λαγῷα ταχέως, τοὺς στεφάνους ἀνείρετε.
φέρε τοὺς ὀβελίσκους, ἵν᾽ ἀναπείρω τὰς κίχλας.
Aristophanes. Aristophanes Comoediae, ed. F.W. Hall and W.M. Geldart, vol. 2. F.W. Hall and W.M. Geldart. Oxford. Clarendon Press, Oxford. 1907.
