On the Spectacles, 27 (Ker)

If the ages of old, Caesar, had begotten Carpophorus, a barbarous land had not dreaded Parthaon's wild-boar, nor Marathon the bull, leafy Nemea the lion, Arcadia the Maenalian boar. When he armed his hand the hydra had died a single death, all the shapes of Chimaera r> had been stricken by him once. The fire-breathing bulls he might have yoked without the Colchian's aid, he might have vanquished either monster of Pasiphae. Were the story of the sea monster renewed, he alone would loose Hesione and Andromeda. Let the glories of Hercules' honour be summed: tis more to have quelled twice ten beasts at one time.
