§1.62.1ἀπαιτεῖ δὲ ὁ λόγος καὶ τὸν Αἰνείαν ἐξ ὧν ἔφυ διηγήσασθαι· βραχείᾳ δὴ καὶ τοῦτο δηλώσει σημανῶ.
The narrative also requires explaining from whom Aeneas was born; and this too I shall make clear in a brief statement.
Δάρδανος ἐπειδὴ Χρύσην τὴν Πάλλαντος θυγατέρα, ἐξ ἧς οἱ πρότεροι παῖδες ἐγένοντο αὐτῷ, τελευτῆσαι συνέπεσε, Βάτειαν γαμεῖ τὴν Τεύκρου θυγατέρα·
Dardanus, when it happened that Chryse, the daughter of Pallas, by whom his former children had been born to him, died, married Bateia, the daughter of Teucer.
καὶ γίνεται παῖς αὐτῷ Ἐριχθόνιος, ὃς ἁπάντων ἀνθρώπων εὐδαιμονέστατος λέγεται γενέσθαι τῆς τε πατρῴας καὶ τῆς ὑπὸ τῷ μητροπάτορι γενομένης §1.62.2κληρονομήσας ἀρχῆς.
And to him was born a son, Erichthonius, who is said to have become the most fortunate of all men, having inherited both his father's dominion and that which had been under his maternal grandfather dominion.
Ἐριχθονίου δὲ καὶ Καλλιρρόης τῆς Σκαμάνδρου γίνεται Τρώς, ἀφʼ οὗ τὴν ἐπωνυμίαν τὸ ἔθνος ἔχει·
From Erichthonius and Callirhoe, the daughter of Scamander, was born Tros, from whom the nation has its name.
Τρωὸς δὲ καὶ Ἀκαλλαρίδος τῆς Εὐμήδους Ἀσσάρακος ἦν· τούτου δὲ καὶ Κλυτοδώρας τῆς Λαομέδοντος Κάπυς· Κάπυος δὲ καὶ νύμφης Ναϊάδος Ἱερομνήμης Ἀγχίσης· Ἀγχίσου δὲ καὶ Ἀφροδίτης Αἰνείας.
From Tros and Acallaris, the daughter of Eumedes, was born Assaracus; and from him and Clytodora, the daughter of Laomedon, Capys; and from Capys and the Naiad nymph Hieromneme, Anchises; and from Anchises and Aphrodite, Aeneas.
ὡς μὲν δὴ καὶ τὸ Τρωικὸν γένος Ἑλληνικὸν ἀρχῆθεν ἦν δεδήλωταί μοι.
Thus it has been shown by me that the Trojan race too was originally Greek.
