1. So he finished and took his seat
And Nestor rose, standing erect

2. He is the king of sandy Pylos
Who lit up the sand dunes with his eloquent speech

3. Had someone other than Atreus' son told of his dream
O assembly of rulers and nobles

4. I would have openly refused to believe him
And claimed that his story was a lie

5. But the lord of all these people
Has himself confirmed the vision of his soul

6. Come let us see how we may be able
To repel the Greeks and stand firm
