We can therefore, in the light of these conclusions, understand in their full meaning the words of Apollo to Orestes[103]:
Thou, Orestes,
Quitting this country, in Parrhasia’s plains
For one revolving year thy dwelling fix,
And give the place thy name: that honour share
With Azan and with Arcas. Pass from thence
To Athens: there against the Furies urge
Thy plea; acquit thee of thy mother’s blood:
There in that awful court the gods shall sit
Thy judges; and thy just cause shall prevail.
