Chorus
The story remains in old legends
that Pan, the keeper of wild beasts, breathing sweet-voiced music on his well-joined pipes, once brought from its tender mother on
Argive
hills
700
a lamb with beautiful golden fleece. A herald stood on the stone platform and cried aloud,
To assembly, Mycenaeans, go to assembly
705
to see the omens given to our blessed rulers. . . . and they honored the house of Atreus.
