γόνος] A word is lost in the MSS., perhaps δ' ἀεὶ or δὲ γᾶς. The allusion may be, as in Pers. 236 , to the silver-mines at Laurium, from which a tithe for luck may have been paid to the treasury of the goddess.

Eumenides Perseus (Aeschylus, Volume 2. Smyth, Herbert Weir, translator. London; New York: William Heinemann; G.P. Putnam's Sons, 1926. (Modernized by Perseus.)) — 916-1020 focus

Chorus

I will accept a home with Pallas, and I will not dishonor a city which she, with Zeus the omnipotent and Ares, holds as a fortress of the gods,

the bright ornament that guards the altars of the gods of Hellas . I pray for the city, with favorable prophecy, that the bright gleam of the sun may cause blessings that give happiness to life
920

to spring from the earth, in plenty.
925

927

Athena

I act zealously for these citizens in this way, installing here among them divinities great and hard to please.

For they have been appointed to arrange everything among mortals. Yet the one who has not found them grievous does not know where the blows of life come from. For the sins of his fathers
930

drag him before them; destruction, in silence and hateful wrath, levels him to the dust, for all his loud boasting.
935

938

Chorus

May no hurtful wind blow to harm the trees—I declare my favor—

and may no burning heat, stealing the buds from plants, pass the border of its proper place; may no deadly plague draw near to kill the fruit; may the earth nurture the thriving flocks
940

with twin offspring at the appointed time; and may the rich produce of the earth always pay the gods’ gift of lucky gain.¹
945

949

Athena

Do you hear, guards of my city,

the things she will accomplish? For the lady Erinys is very powerful, both with the deathless gods and with those below the earth; and in their dealings with mankind, they accomplish matters visibly, perfectly; to some giving songs,
950

to others a life made dim by tears.
955

956

Chorus

I forbid deadly and untimely fate for men; grant to lovely maidens life with a husband,

you that have the rightful power; you, divine Fates, our sisters by one mother, divinities who distribute justly, who have a share in every home,
960

and whose righteous visitations press heavily at every season, most honored everywhere among the gods!
965

968

Athena

I am glad that they are zealously accomplishing these things for my land;

and I am grateful to Persuasion, that her glance kept watch over my tongue and mouth, when I encountered their fierce refusal. But Zeus of the assembly has prevailed.² Our rivalry
970

in doing good is victorious forever.
975

976

Chorus

I pray that discord, greedy for evil, may never clamor in this city, and may the dust not drink

the black blood of its people and through passion cause ruinous murder for vengeance to the destruction of the state.³
980

But may they return joy for joy in a spirit of common love, and may they hate with one mind; for this is the cure of many an evil in the world.
985

988

Athena

Do they not then intend to find the path of good speech?

From these terrible faces I see great profit for these citizens; for, if you always greatly honor with kindness the kindly ones, you will surely be pre-eminent, keeping your land and city in the straight path
990

of justice.
995

996

Chorus

Farewell, farewell, in the wealth allotted to you by fate. Farewell, people of the city, seated near to Zeus, the beloved of the beloved maiden,

learning at last the way of wisdom. The Father stands in awe of you, since you are under Pallas’ wings.
1000

1003

Athena

Farewell to you also; but I must lead the way to show you your dwellings

by the sacred light of these, your escorts.⁴ Go, and, speeding beneath the earth with these solemn sacrifices, hold back what is ruinous to the land, but send what is profitable for the city to win her victory.
1005

You who hold the city, children of Cranaus,⁵ lead on their way these new dwellers here. May there be good will in the citizens in return for good done to them!
1010

1014

Chorus

Farewell, farewell, again, I repeat,

all you in the city, both gods and mortals, living in Pallas’ city; if you duly revere my residence among you, you will not blame
1015

the chances of life.

Do you hear these things, guardians of the city, what she accomplishes? for the awful Erinnys has great power both with the immortals, and with those beneath the earth, and with respect to men they manifestly and powerfully bring about to some indeed the song, but to others on the contrary affording a life dimmed with tears.

For mighty is the Furies' power,

And deep-revered in courts of heaven

And realms of hell; and clear to all

They weave thy doom, mortality!

And some in joy and peace shall sing;
1100

But unto other some they bring

Sad life and tear-dimmed eye.

Chorus.

Habt ihr es gehört, Schirmherren der Stadt,
905

Welch Glück sie verleih'n?

Denn Großes vermag der Erinnyen Wort

Bei den Göttern der Höh'n und im Reiche der Nacht;

Sie schalten mit Allmacht, offen und klar,

In der Menschen Geschick, dem frohen Gesang
910

Und dem Andern ein Loos

Voll düsterer Zähren bereitend.

Erster Halbchor.
Zweite Strophe.

Athena

Do they not then intend to find the path of good speech?

From these terrible faces I see great profit for these citizens; for, if you always greatly honor with kindness the kindly ones, you will surely be pre-eminent, keeping your land and city in the straight path
990

of justice.
995

Chorus

Farewell, farewell, in the wealth allotted to you by fate. Farewell, people of the city, seated near to Zeus, the beloved of the beloved maiden,

learning at last the way of wisdom. The Father stands in awe of you, since you are under Pallas’ wings.
1000

Chorus

Farewell, farewell, again, I repeat,

all you in the city, both gods and mortals, living in Pallas’ city; if you duly revere my residence among you, you will not blame
1015

the chances of life.
1020
