What do you wish, O stranger, to answer in your turn to these things? But having told your country and race and your misfortunes, after that repel this charge; if, trusting to justice, you sit keeping station at this image beside my shrine, a venerated suppliant after the fashion of Ixion 2
. To all these answer something easily understood by me.

Say, ſtranger, what can'ſt thou reply to this?
Speak firſt thy race, thy country, thy misfortunes;
Then urge thy plea againſt this accuſation;
If truſting in the juſtice of thy cauſe,

With reverend hands, a ſuppliant as Ixion t

E tu, che cosa opporre, ospite, puoi ?
Di' la tua patria, la progenie tua
e le vicende, e dalle accuse scólpati,
se fede hai pur nella giustizia, e siedi
475
perciò, come Ission, supplice sacro
vicino all'ara e al simulacro mio.
Rispondi a tutto, e fa ch'io chiaro intenda.

O man unknown, make thou thy plea in turn;
Speak forth thy land, thy lineage, and thy woes;
Then, if thou canst, avert this bitter blame—
If, as I deem, in confidence of right
Thou sittest hard beside my holy place,

Clasping this statue, as Ixion sat,
A sacred suppliant for Zeus to cleanse,—
To all this answer me in words made plain.

Was sagst du, Fremdling, wider dies für deinen Theil?
Erst nenne Heimat und Geschlecht und Lebensloos,
Und diesen Vorwurf wehre dann von deinem Haupt,

In meines Herdes Nähe dich geflüchtet hast,
Um Sühne flehend, heilig wie Ixion einst.
Auf alles dies entgegne wohlverständlich mir.

mvp-comment-216-2 drittes Epeisodion. Athena erscheint und nachdem sie sich von der Chorführerin und Orestes den Sachverhalt hat darlegen lassen (gleichsam die ανάκρισις oder προδικασία), entschliefst sie sich den Fall durch einen neuen Gerichtshof entscheiden zu lassen. Nach 407 könnte man glauben, dafs Athena wie im Aias des Sophokles auf dem θεολογεῖον auftrete. Da sie aber am Schlusse dieser Scene abgeht, um sich in die Stadt zu begeben, und später (569) auf der gewöhnlichen Bühne auftritt (vgl. 738), so mufs man annehmen, dafs sie auch hier auf dem λογεῖον, nicht in der Höhe erscheint. Sie kommt von der linken Seite.
