Ruinous fate destroyed [*] For not yet did the hostile goddess, the savage daughter of Leto, [stop] her anger. We fought hard for the beast's fiery hide
with the Couretes, steadfast in battle. Then I killed, among many others, Iphiclus and noble Aphares, my mother's swift brothers; for
strong-spirited Ares does not discern a friend in battleshafts fly blindly from the hands against the souls of the enemy, and bring death
to whomever the god wishes.
