εἴς τινα φιλόσοφον γενόμενον ὕπαρχον πόλεως ἐπὶ Βαλεντινιανοῦ καὶ Βάλεντος
ἄντυγος οὐρανίης ὑπερήμενος, ἐς πόθον ἦλθες
ἄντυγος ἀργυρέης: αἶσχος ἀπειρέσιον
ἦσθά ποτε κρείσσων: αὖθις δ᾽ ἐγένου πολὺ χείρων.
δεῦρ᾽ ἀνάβηθι κάτω: νῦν γὰρ ἄνω κατέβης.

— Paton edition

Thou, seated above the heavenly wheel, hast desired a silver wheel. Oh, infinite shame! Erst thou wast of higher station and hast straight become much lower. Ascend hither to the depths; for now thou hast descended to the heights.
