Δαναός
παῖδες , φρονεῖν χρή : ξὺν φρονοῦντι δ᾽ ἥκετε
πιστῷ γέροντι τῷ δε ναυκλήρῳ πατρί.
καὶ τἀπὶ χέρσου νῦν προμηθίαν λαβὼν
αἰνῶ φυλάξαι τἄμ᾽ ἔπη δελτουμένας.
180
ὁρῶ κόνιν , ἄναυδον ἄγγελον στρατοῦ:
σύριγγες οὐ σιγῶσιν ἀξονήλατοι:
ὄχλον δ᾽ ὑπασπιστῆρα καὶ δορυσσόον
λεύσσω , ξὺν ἵπποις καμπύλοις τ᾽ ὀχήμασιν:
τάχ᾽ ἂν πρὸς ἡμᾶς τῆσδε γῆς ἀρχηγέται
185
ὀπτῆρες εἶεν ἀγγέλων πεπυσμένοι.
ἀλλ᾽ εἴτ᾽ ἀπήμων εἴτε καὶ τεθηγμένος
ὠμῇ ξὺν ὀργῇ τόνδ᾽ ἐπόρνυται στόλον,
ἄμεινόν ἐστι παντὸς εἵνεκ᾽ , ὦ κόραι,
πάγον προσίζειν τόνδ᾽ ἀγωνίων θεῶν.
190
κρεῖσσον δὲ πύργου βωμός , ἄρρηκτον σάκος
ἀλλ᾽ ὡς τάχιστα βᾶτε , καὶ λευκοστεφεῖς
ἱκετηρίας , ἁγάλματ᾽ αἰδοίου Διός,
σεμνῶς ἔχουσαι διὰ χερῶν εὐωνύμων,
αἰδοῖα καὶ γοεδνὰ καὶ ζαχρεῖ᾽ ἔπη
195
ξένους ἀμείβεσθ᾽ , ὡς ἐπήλυδας πρέπει,
τορῶς λέγουσαι τάσδ᾽ ἀναιμάκτους φυγάς.
φθογγῇ δ᾽ ἑπέσθω πρῶτα μὲν τὸ μὴ θρασύ,
τὸ μὴ μάταιον δ᾽ ἐκ μετωποσωφρόνων
ἴτω προσώπων ὄμματος παρ᾽ ἡσύχου.
200
καὶ μὴ πρόλεσχος μηδ᾽ ἐφολκὸς ἐν λόγῳ
γένῃ . τὸ τῇδε κάρτ᾽ ἐπίφθονον γένος.
μέμνησο δ᾽ εἴκειν : χρεῖος εἶ ξένη φυγάς.
θρασυστομεῖν γὰρ οὐ πρέπει τοὺς ἥσσονας.
