Just as when a quick thought darts through the heart
of a man when cares crowd in on him
45 and toss him about or when bright glances spin
off the eyes – just like that –
glorious Hermes devised word and deed together.
He measured and cut stalks of reed
and fixed them in, he pierced through the back,
through the shell of the tortoise.
Inspired, he stretched oxhide over the shell,
put in the horns and fitted the crosspiece
50 over the two of them and stretched out
seven harmonious strings of sheep-gut.
