Fortune's reverse which time prepares, nor quail?

—He who evades law and in lawlessness

Delights him,—he has broken down his trust—

The chariot, riches haled—now blackening in the dust!

Ismenos, go thou garlanded!

Break into dance, ye ways, the polished bed

O' the seven-gated city! Dirké, thou

Fair-flowing, with the Asopiad sisters all,

Leave your sire's stream, attend the festival

Of Herakles, one choir of nymphs, sing triumph now!
