Translation
Bellerophon desired to ascend into heaven by means of the winged [horse] Pegasus. And Euripides says: "come, o my dear one, than Pegasus [sc. more] swift-winged."1 He is being lifted up high on a machine. This is called e)w/rhma .2 In it they used to bring down the gods and those who traveled in the air.
