Primus se Danaum magna comitante caterva
Androgeos offert nobis, socia agmina credens
inscius, atque ultro verbis compellat amicis:
'Festinate, viri! Nam quae tam sera moratur
segnities? Alii rapiunt incensa feruntque
Pergama: vos celsis nunc primum a navibus itis?'
Dixit, et extemplo (neque enim responsa dabantur
fida satis) sensit medios delapsus in hostis.

Androgeos first offered himself with a large crowd of Greeks following, believing (us to be) allied soldiers, unaware, he compelled us with friendly words:
Hurry Men! What lazing sloth delays you? Others rape and pillage Troy having been set aflame: do you now just come from the lofty ships? He said, and only then understand (for no true enough response was given by us) that he had fallen into the middle of his enemies.
