Never may Jupiter, who directs all things, set his might in opposition to my purpose, nor may I be backward in attending upon the gods at their hallowed banquets, at which oxen are sacrificed, beside the restless stream of my sire Ocean; and may I not trespass in my words; but may this feeling abide by me and never melt away.

Never, never may my ſoul
530
Jove's allruling pow'r defy;
Never feel his harſh controul,
Sov'reign ruler of the ſky.
When the hallow'd ſteer has bled s
,
When the ſacred feaſt is ſpread,
535
'Midſt the cryſtal waves below,
Whence father Ocean's boundless billows flow,
Let not my foot be ſlow:
There, th' ætherial gueſts among,
No rude ſpeech diſgrace my tongue.
540
May my mind this rev'rence keep;
Print it ſtrong, and grave it deep.

Deh!. Giove che dominio

ha su tutte le genti,
mai non s'opponga alle speranze mie:
deh!, ch'io mai non sia tarda a offrire ai Superi
di bovi epule pie,
presso del padre Océano
620
all'eterne fluenti:
mai non mi sfuggano empie
parole: ognor nel seno
pietà mi regni, e mai non venga meno.

O never may my weak and faint desire
570
Strive against God most high—
Never be slack in service, never tire
Of sacred loyalty;
Nor fail to wend unto the altar-side,
Where with the blood of kine
575
Steams up the offering, by the quenchless tide
Of Ocean, Sire divine!
Be this within my heart, indelible—
Offend not with thy tongue!

Nimmer empöre mein Herz
525
Zeus, des Weltalls Lenker, zu feindlichem Troye!
Nimmer sei ich lässig, den Göttern zu nah'n
Mit heiligen Opfern der Stiere
Dort an meines Vaters Okeanos rastlosflutendem Strom!
Nimmer auch frevle mein Mund!
530
Möge das feststeh'n in mir,
Und nimmerdar entschwinden!
Erste Gegenstrophe.

526-560. Second Stasimon. The subject - praise of peace with Heaven and a tranquil life - is sug- gested by the words of the cory- phaeus 519 τί γὰρ πέπρωται Ζηνὶ πλὴν ἀεὶ κρατεῖν ; The dactylo-epitritic rhythm corresponds with this senti- ment, and 'affords, in the midst of the heat of tragic pathos, a moment of refreshing coolness and cheerful calm' (Westphal). ποτε ἀντίπαλον κράτος ποιοῖτο τῇ ἐμῇ γνώμῃ, ἀντὶ τοῦ μηδέποτε ἐναντίος μοι γένοιτο, Schol. – θεῖτο κράτος ἀντίπα- λον: see on 163.
