Metamorphoses 6.83-89 (LA)

Οβίδιος (EL)
Ovidius (EN)

Ut tamen exemplis intellegat aemula laudis, quod pretium speret pro tam furialibus ausis quattuor in partes certamina quattuor addit, clara colore suo, brevibus distincta sigillis. Threiciam Rhodopen habet angulus unus et Haemum (nunc gelidi montes, mortalia corpora quondam), nomina summorum sibi qui tribuere deorum. (LA)
Για να καταλάβει, όμως, η αντίζηλός της στους επαίνους με παραδείγματα, τι βραβείο πρόκειται να κερδίσει με τόσο τρελά εγχειρήματα, προσθέτει στις τέσσερις γωνίες του υφαντού τέσσερις άθλους, που ξεχωρίζουν από το χρώμα τους και διακρίνονται με μικρές σφραγίδες. Στη μία άκρη εικονογραφούνται τα θρακικά βουνά Ροδόπη και Αίμος, τώρα  παγωμένες βουνοκορφές, κάποτε θνητοί, που απέδωσαν στους εαυτούς τους τα ονόματα των ύψιστων θεών. (EL)
And, so Arachne, rival of her fame, might learn the folly of her mad attempt, from the great deeds of ancient histories, and what award presumption must expect, Minerva wove four corners with life scenes of contest, brightly colored, but of size diminutive. In one of these was shown the snow-clad mountains, Rhodope, and Haemus, which for punishment were changed from human beings to those rigid forms, when they aspired to rival the high Gods. (EN)
