And with a will that meets my will may She,
The unstained child of Zeus, on me look down,
*Our Artemis, who guards
The consecrated walls;
And with all strength, though hunted down, uncaught,
May She, the Virgin, me a virgin free, 140
Great seed of Mother dread,
That I may 'scape, still maiden undefiled,
My suitor's marriage-bed.
