Μηδος γαρ ην ‛ο πρωτος ‛ηγεμων στρατου·
Αλλος δ' εκεινου παις τοδ' εργον ηνυσε·
Φρενες γαρ αυτου θυμον οιακοστροφουν.
Τριτος δ' απ' αυτου Κυρος, ευδαιμων ανηρ, &c.
They have done a work
The greatest, and most memorable, such as never happen'd,
For it has emptied the falling Sufa:
From the time that King Jupiter granted this honour,
That one man should Reign over all fruitful Asia,
Having the imperial Scepter.
