The admiral ship, with low-furled sail makes way

By the swift strokes of measured-beating oars.

Wait calmly ye, and with well-counselled awe

Cling to the gods; the while ye watch their coming,

Myself will hence, and straight return with aid

To champion our need.[n43] For I must look for

Some herald or ambassador claiming you,

Their rightful prey, forthwith; but fear ye not,

Their harsh will may not be. This warning take

Should we with help be slow, remain you here
