Silently faced his fellow and forbore.

Till Death shrilled, hard and quick, in spite and fear:

"Ha, ha, and what mayst thou do at the domes,

Why hauntest here, thou Phoibos? Here again

At the old injustice, limiting our rights,

Balking of honor due us Gods o' the grave?

Was 't not enough for thee to have delayed

Death from Admetos,—with thy crafty art

Cheating the very Fates,—but thou must arm

The bow-hand and take station, press 'twixt me
