Theodore Alois Buckley (Translator)

But to the gods just and perfect rites 8 , matters having happened fortunately, shall be abundantly afforded, when death is absent. Ah! ah! ah! troubles difficult to be judged! where will this billow carry us?

Et, sans répit, ma main s'abat, pour en mettre le lin en pièces, sur mon voile de Sidon.
Vers le ciel, c'est une ruée de serments, de vœux d'actions de grâces, quand la mort est là, qui menace 1 . Hélas ! hélas !
vents incertains! où nous emportera ce flot 2 ?

The vow perform'd, the Gods aton'd,
135
The pious rites with bleſſings crown'd,
Death diſtant waits with ſlacken'd pace,
Nor dares profane the ſacred place.
But will he now his foot repreſs ?
Will the kind Gods their votary bleſs ?
140
Ah me! theſe ſwelling waves of woe,
Whither, ah whither will they flow?

Quando è lontana l'ora di morte,
130
quando sorride prospera sorte,
d'ostie profumi
Ahimè! ahimè !
volano ai Numi.
Il mio travaglio qual fine avrà?

Dove il maroso ci spingerà?

erstes Epeisodion. 1. Szene (182—239): Danaos und der Koryphaios. Danaos kündigt das Nahen des Königs an und gibt seinen Töchtern Verhaltungsmaß- regeln. 2. Szene (240 - 349): Pelas- gos und die Vorigen. Die Danaiden erklären ihre Herkunft von Argos und erflehen als ungerecht Ver- folgte den Schutz des Argivischen Königs. Dieser ist bedenklich wegen der schweren Folgen, welche die Zusage des Schutzes für sein Land haben kann. 3. Kommos (350-422): Fortsetzung der Bitte. 4. Chorikon (423-446), welches das Nachsinnen des Königs zu Gunsten der Da- naiden zu wenden sucht. 5. Dialog des Königs, des Koryphaios und des Danaos (447-532): Der König offenbart seinen Entschluß die Entscheidung dem Volke anheim- zugeben.
