Lead maiden, thou canst guide him where we will.

Follow with blind steps, father, as I lead.

CHORUS.
In a strange land strange thou art;
To her will incline thy heart;
Honor whatso’er the State
Honors, all she frowns on hate.
OEDIPUS.
Guide me child, where we may range
Safe within the paths of right;
Counsel freely may exchange
Nor with fate and fortune fight.
CHORUS.
(Ant. 2)
Halt! Go no further than that rocky floor.
OEDIPUS.
Stay where I now am?
CHORUS.
Yes, advance no more.
