Chor. If further she should go, will she not see

That other Argos, the Dodonian land? 1122

Pr. Crossing the Phthian hills thou next shalt reach

Pharsalus, and Olympus’ peakèd snows

Shall guide thee o’er the green Pelasgic plains

For many a day, but to Argissa come

Let old Peneius thy slow pilot be

Through Tempè, till they turn upon his left

Crowning the wooded slopes with splendours bare.

Thence issuing forth on the Pierian shore
