Wat zeg je, Aischylos? Jouw goden voer je op
terwijl ze schandelijk afzien door hun medegoden?
Besef je zelf niet dat je zo uiteindelijk
goden vereert die van nature kunnen lijden,
en niet in staat zijn om bestraffing te ontlopen?

Aeschylus, what are you saying? You present your gods
shamefully suffering at the hand of their fellow gods?
How then could you not have noticed that in the end
you honour gods that are capable of suffering by nature
and are incapable of escaping punishment?

'Aeschyle, quid narras? deos tuos ostendis
turpiter patientes, volentibus diis ejusdem-modi [i. e. similibus,
et quomodo igitur non sensisti ipse tandem
a te deos coli affectibus-obnoxios natura,
neque eos-qui-possent effugere supplicium?'.
