Chorus

Look, look! A dim form of divine appearance in seen hovering in mid air. What is that moving? what influence divine am I conscious of? Look, maidens, mark it well; see, yonder is some deity, wafted through the lustrous air and alighting on the plains

of Phthia, home of steeds.
1230

Was wogt in der Luft? Welch Gottergebild,
1170

Ihr Jungfraun, seh' ich? O schaut, blickt auf!

Wohl ist es ein Gott, der, heitere Luft

Durchschwimmend, herab auf Phthiotis schwebt,

Zu dem roſſenährenden Lande.

Thetis erscheint. Peleus. Der Chor.
