The Suppliant Women. (OCR draft) Experimental (The Suppliant Women.. Theodore Alois Buckley, 1849.) — 1026 focus
but the rivers that pour through this country a willing stream, authors of increase, softening this soil of the earth with enriching weaves. And may chaste Diana regard with pity this train: nor through necessity let Cythercan nuptials come: but this reward is hateful 2
.
But this favouring strain neglects not Venus: for she has a power over Jove together with Juno: and the nearest to the many-counselled goddess is honoured for her mighty works. But loved companions are present with mother [Venus], and no passion is disobedient to soothing persuasion. But to Harmonia is given a portion of deceiving Venus and the ways of loves.

Mais bien les fleuves qui, par ce pays, vont lui versant l'onde paisible où il s'abreuve et se multiplient en ruisseaux
fécondants, pour amollir le terreau argien 1 . Et que la chaste Artémis jette sur cette troupe un regard de pitié, afin que nul hymen ne nous vienne ployer
sous le joug de Cypris ! A qui je hais soit réservée l'épreuve !

Our praiſe Pelaſgia's towns demand;
And each fresh fount, that loves to lead
His humid train thro' grove, thro' mead,
And rolls luxuriance thro' the land.
Virgin Diana, bend thine eye,
1115
And piteous of a virgin's woes,
O ſave enſnared chaſtity,
From the rude touch of hated foes:
Nor ſee thy ſtruggling vot'ries led
Where Venus decks the bed!
1120
Nor, Queen of Love, ſhall our mellifluous lays
Be ſilent in thy praiſe:
For thou, next Heav'n's imperial queen,
In highest grace with Jove art ſeen,
And mighty deeds declare thy pow'r:
1125
The paſſions hear thy ſoft controul;
Thy ſweet voice melts the willing ſoul,
Enchanted with thy honied lore.
Round thee, where'er thou lead'ſt the way,
Joyful the frolic Cupids rove;
1130
And as their antic ſports they play,
Whiſper the harmony of love.

Li udranno i fiumi che feraci e provvidi
sopra questa contrada i flutti volgono,
1090
che con le pingui irrorano
fluenti questo suolo.
Abbia la pura Artemide
pietà del nostro stuolo.
Né me Citera in violento imene
1095
stringa ai nemici miei tocchi tal bene.
Né Cipride trascura la pia nostra preghiera.
Presso a Giove, con Era,
grande è sua possa: onore ha per sue celebri
prove la Diva astuta.
1100
E vicina ha la Brama, e l'altra tenera
figlia, a cui nulla mai non si rifiuta,
Süada allettatrice. Ed Armonia
compagna è pur di Cipride,
degli amor lungo la fallace via.

Sing we the bounteous streams that ripple and gush through the city;
Quickening flow they and fertile, the soft new life of the plain.
Yet not in scorn we chant, but in honour of Aphrodite;
She truly and Hera alone have power with Zeus and control.
Holy the deeds of her rite, her craft is secret and mighty,
And high is her honour on earth, and subtle her sway of the soul.

Nur die Quellströme besing' ich,
Die das Land tränken mit Labsal,
Und in allnährenden Windungen sich ergießend,
Durch die Gau'n fruchtspendend hinzieh'n.
Doch vergißt auch Aphrodita's der Gesang nicht;
An des Zeus Seite vereint herrscht sie mit Hera,
985
Und in ehrwürdiger That waltet die tiefsinnige Göttin.

τέλος (so Weil für γάμος) Κυθερείας, d. i. γαμήλιον τέλος, die Weihe der Liebesgöttin, die Hoch- zeit. Vgl. τέλος θαλεροῖο γάμοιο Hom. v 74. Κυθερεία heißt Aphro- dite schon Hom. 9 288, Hes. Theog. 198 ( ὅτι προσέκυρσε Κυθήροις). Die Insel Kythera, eine alte Kolonie der Phönizier, war wie Zypern ( Κύπρις) ein Mittelpunkt des orien- talischen Aphroditekultus (Astarte).
