Ἄλβις (singular vocative)

Borrowed from Latin Albis, from Proto-Germanic *albī.

Οἱ δὲ Ῥωμαῖοι τὰ ἑσπέρια τῆς Εὐρώπης ἅπαντα μέχρι Ἄλβιος ποταμοῦ τοῦ τὴν Γερμανίαν δίχα διαιροῦντος τά τε πέραν Ἴστρου τὰ μέχρι Τύρα ποταμοῦ.

1854 translation by H. C. Hamilton and W. Falconer
And the Romans [have discovered to us] the entire west of Europe as far as the river Elbe, which divides Germany, and the country beyond the Ister to the river Dniester.

Hoi dè Rhōmaîoi tà hespéria tês Eurṓpēs hápanta mékhri Álbios potamoû toû tḕn Germanían díkha diairoûntos tá te péran Ístrou tà mékhri Túra potamoû.

Κἂν πλείω δὲ γνώριμα ὑπῆρξεν, εἰ ἐπέτρεπε τοῖς στρατηγοῖς ὁ Σεβαστὸς διαβαίνειν τὸν Ἄλβιν, μετιοῦσι τοὺς ἐκεῖσε ἀπανισταμένους.

1854 translation by H. C. Hamilton and W. Falconer
and we should have become acquainted with a greater number of their tribes, if Augustus had permitted his generals to pass the Elbe, in pursuit of those who had fled thither.

Kàn pleíō dè gnṓrima hupêrxen, ei epétrepe toîs stratēgoîs ho Sebastòs diabaínein tòn Álbin, metioûsi toùs ekeîse apanistaménous.
