Now when to fruitage of youth golden-pinioned + 

He won, to Alpheus’ mid-stream he strode + 

’Neath the night-stars, and on the wide-dominioned, + 

His grandsire, called, and Delos’ Archer-god, + 

Praying, “Let honour nation-fostering rest + 

Upon mine head!” And answer made his father + 

With voice infallible to his request: + 

“Arise, and to that place where all men gather + 

Follow, my son, obeying my behest.” + 
