OK, IE-ists of the world unite, you have nothing to lose but your
laryngeals! Here's Owis Ekwos-kwe in the "original" Aredos:

ovis ecuicue

gueroi ovis, cuesio lana ne est, ecuons especet, oinom gurum uehnom
uehontem, oinomcue megam forom, oinomcue nerom occu ferontem.
ovis nu ecuovios ecuet: cer ahnuto moi ecuons agontem nerom lucontei.
ecui ecuent: cludhi, ovei, ceres ahnuto nesmei lucontevios: neros, potis,
oviom lane sevi  guherom uestrom cuerat, ca ne oviom lanam esti.
toi cecluuo ovis agrom efuget.

Sorry, no parsing because this version is a bit out of date now. neros is
now ner and I've discarded occu, for instance. Not only that, vowels are not
marked for length!! After being scolded for my use of unintelligible
diacritics, I'm trying to give it up- a filthy habit anyway.
