τέθνηκ᾽ Εὐτυχίδης ὁ μελογράφος. οἱ κατὰ γαῖαν
φεύγετ᾽ ἔχων ᾠδὰς ἔρχεται Εὐτυχίδης:
καὶ κιθάρας αὑτῷ διετάξατο συγκατακαῦσαι
δώδεκα, καὶ κίστας εἰκοσιπέντε νόμων.

νῦν ὑμῖν ὁ Χάρων ἐπελήλυθε: ποῦ τις ἀπέλθῃ
λοιπόν, ἐπεὶ χᾁδην Εὐτυχίδης κατέχει;

Eutychides the lyric poet is dead. Fly, ye people
who dwell under earth ; Eutychides is coming with odes, and he ordered them to burn with him twelve lyres and twenty-five cases of music. Now indeed Charon has got hold of you. Where can one depart to in future, since Eutychides is established in Hades too?
