Devised for glorious Athens, nor did they,

The invading host who fell at Marathon,

Suffice; but my son, counting it his task

To exact requital for it, brought on him

So great a crowd of sorrows. But I pray,

As to those ships that have this fate escaped,

480

Where did'st thou leave them? Can'st thou clearly tell?

Mess. The captains of the vessels that were left,

With a fair wind, but not in meet array,
