ANTISTROPHE I

_Chor._ Ah, I may ne'er again

Behold the stream where graze the goodly kine,

Nourished and fed by which[260]

The blood of cattle waxes strong and full!

*As with a native's right,

*And one of old descent,

I keep, old man, my seat, my seat, I say.

_Her._ Nay, in a ship, a ship them shalt soon go, 840

With or without thy will,

By force, I say, by force:

Come, come, provoke not evils terrible,

Falling by these my hands.
