But I have returned into the ancient track, and the flowery scenes of the watchings of our mother, the herd-feeding mead, from whence Io driven 2
by the brize, flies distracted, passing through many tribes of mortals: and twice by fate having cut through the billowy way she reaches the opposite continent.
She hastens through the Asian land, through sheep-feeding Phrygia: and she passes the city of Teuthras of the Mysians, and the Lydian plains, and through the Cilician and Pamphylian mountains with furious haste; and the ever-flowing rivers, and the wealthy region, and the corn-abounding land of Venus.

Une trace ancienne me ramène aujourd'hui aux lieux où
sous l'œil d'un gardien jadis paissait ma mère. C'est là la prairie qui nourrit les génisses, d'où Io, pourchassée par le taon, s'enfuit un jour, l'esprit perdu, traverse cent peuples divers,
et, fendant le détroit houleux, sur l'ordre du destin, dépasse la limite des deux continents
qui s'affrontent.
Elle se lance à travers l'Asie, coupe par la Phrygie moutonnière, arrive à la cité de Teuthras en Mysie, puis,

Her foot, in times of old, where now we tread,
Trod the flow'renamell'd mead;

And now have I roamed back
Unto the ancient track
595
Where Io roamed and pastured among flowers,
Watched o'er by Argus' eyes,
Through the lush grasses and the meadow bowers.
Thence, by the gadfly maddened, forth she flies
Unto far lands and alien peoples driven
600
And, following fate, through paths of foam and surge,
Sees, as she goes, the cleaving strait divide
Greece, from the Eastland riven.
And swift through Asian borders doth she urge
Her course, o'er Phrygian mountains' sheep-clipt side;
605
Thence, where the Mysian realm of Teuthras lies,
Towards Lydian lowlands hies,
And o'er Cilician and Pamphylian hills
And ever-flowing rills,
And thence to Aphrodite's fertile shore, 1
610
The land of garnered wheat and wealthy store.

Ich fand hier alte Spuren wieder,
Au'n, wo die Mutter auf Blumen geweidet,
Die fette Grasflur, von wannen Jo
Einst von der Bremse verfolgt
Flüchtete, rasend im Geist;
520
Viele Geschlechter der Menschen hindurch
Schweifte sie; zwier kam ste zum jenseitigen Strand,
Nach des Geschicks Willen der See wogende Flut durchschneidend.
Zweite Gegenstrophe.
Sie rennt weithin durch Asis' Auen,
Phrygia's lämmerbedeckte Gefilde;
525
Durch Teuthras' Stadt eilt sie, durch der Myser
Thale, die lydischen Gau'n
Und der Kiliker Gebirg
Und der Pamphyler in stürmendem Schwung;
Ströme, die nie rasten im Lauf, sah sie, das gold-
530
prangende Land, kam in das fruchtwallende Reich der Kypris.
Dritte Strophe.

erstes Stasimon: Gebet zu Gott (Zeus). Schütze uns gegen den Übermut der Männer; als Nachkommen der Io rufen wir zu dir als unserem Stammvater. Wir stehen jetzt wieder auf der Flur, von welcher Io fortgetrieben wurde hinauf zum Bosporus, über diesen nach Klein- asien, durch Phrygien, Mysien, Lydien, Pamphylien, Kilikien, Phönikien nach Ägypten, wo sie erschien zum Staunen der Be- wohner, welche sich über das niegesehene Wesen, halb Kuh, halb Frau, entsetzten. Dort in Ägypten aber legtest du deine heilende Hand auf sie und sie erhielt wieder ihre Gestalt und gebar von dir den Epaphos, den Ahnherrn unseres Geschlechts. Wir haben also ein Anrecht auf deine Hilfe, und du kannst helfen; denn wer ist mäch- tiger als Zeus, dessen Wort sofort zur Tat wird!" Auch hier benutzt der Dichter die Gelegenheit seine geographischen Kenntnisse zu ver- werten. Vgl. zu 261.
