“By the Gods’ doom to Abas’ street-ways stately.”
So Amphiaraus spake. And also I
Cast on Alkmaion’s tomb, rejoicing greatly,
My wreaths of song: the dews of poesy
Thereon shall lie.
Neighbour and warder of my wealth is he,
Who met me to earth’s storied centre faring
With triumph-boding. Dead, he still is sharing
In his forefathers’ gift of prophecy.
