Translation
When Aesop the mythographer consulted the oracle in regard to wealth the god answered with this pronouncement: "for this is productive land." And an oracle was given by Bakis the oracle-monger: "but when wolves and gray crows inhabit at the same time the [land] between Corinth and Sikyon." This is what he was riddling at: that even the city is founded between the sky and the earth; Cloudcuckooland, that is.
