[15]
ὅτι ὄντος ἐν Αὐλίδι τοῦ στρατεύματος, θυσίας γενομένης Ἀπόλλωνι, ὁρμήσας δράκων ἐκ τοῦ βωμοῦ παρὰ τὴν πλησίον πλάτανον, οὔσης ἐν αὐτῇ νεοττιᾶς, τοὺς ἐν αὐτῇ καταναλώσας στρουθοὺς ὀκτὼ σὺν τῇ μητρὶ ἐνάτῃ λίθος ἐγένετο. Κάλχας δὲ εἰπὼν κατὰ Διὸς βούλησιν γεγονέναι αὐτοῖς τὸ σημεῖον τοῦτο, τεκμηράμενος ἐκ τῶν γεγονότων ἔφη δεκαετεῖ χρόνῳ δεῖν Τροίαν ἁλῶναι.
