Having his hand accursed with shame?— 1740

Doth he forget the gods have been

In such disguise?—How Zeus once came

Thus to Lycaon’s feast unbid:—

Or how in Celeus’ house, ’tis said,

Demeter at Eleusis hid?—

And were he but a man, ’tis dread

To smite in wrath the hoary head.

Amph. Father, I bring thee meat. May happiness

Ere long be thine, for what thou sufferest now.
