Since Kastor and Polydeukes his brother came for guest-welcome to Pamphaes,
No marvel it is that ever thereafter it should be inborn in the race of these
To be mighty men in the athlete-lists, for these twain, warders abiding
Of the wide-spreading dancing-lawns of Sparta, still unseen are presiding
Along with Hermes and Heracles, and mete out all fair governance due;
And to righteous men they have great regard, for the race of the Gods is faithful and true.
