τὸν καλὸν ὡς ἰδόμαν Ἀρχέστρατον, οὐ μὰ τὸν Ἑρμᾶν,
οὐ καλὸν αὐτὸν ἔφαν: οὐ γὰρ ἄγαν ἐδόκει.εἶπα, καὶ ἁ Νέμεσίς με συνάρπασε, κεὐθὺς ἐκείμαν
ἐν πυρί, παῖς ^ δ᾽ ἐπ᾽ ἐμοὶ Ζεὺς ἐκεραυνοβόλει.τὸν παῖδ᾽ ἱλασόμεσθ᾽, ἢ τὰν θεόν; ἀλλὰ θεοῦ μοι
— Paton edition
ἔστιν ὁ παῖς κρέσσων χαιρέτω ἁ Νέμεσις.
When I saw Archestratus the fair I said, so help me Hermes I did, that he was not fair ; for he seemed not passing fair to me. I had but spoken the word and Nemesis seized me, and at once I lay in the flames and Zeus, in the guise of a boy, rained his lightning on me. Shall I beseech the boy or the goddess for mercy ? But to me the boy is greater than the goddess. Let Nemesis go her way.

En voyant le bel Archestratos : « Beau ? Non, par Hermès ! », dis-je. Car ce n’était pas frappant.
— R. Aubreton
Je parlai… et Némésis me saisit : j’étais aussitôt plongé dans le feu, Zeus tout entier lançait sur moi ses foudres. Allons-nous implorer l’enfant ou la déesse ? Eh ! l’enfant m’est plus qu’un dieu. Bonsoir, Némésis !
