ἀρνεῖται τὸν Ἔρωτα τεκεῖν ἡ Κύπρις, ἰδοῦσα
ἄλλον ἐν ἠιθέοις Ἵμερον Ἀντίοχον,
ἀλλά, νέοι, στέργοιτε νέον Πόθον ἦ γὰρ ὁ κοῦρος
εὕρηται κρείσσων οὗτος Ἔρωτος Ἔρως.

— Paton edition

Cyprus denies that she gave birth to Love now that she sees Antiochus among the young men, a second Love. But, ye young men, love this new Love ; for of a truth this boy has proved to be a Love better than Love.
