And whence all knowledge gleams to give renown,
Pisistratus! avenge thee on his life
Whose bold embrace hath brought our daughter down!”
And her lord seemed to me benign and mild,
Answering with aspect that her fury stemmed:
“What should we do to one that harmed our child,
If one caressing her be so condemned?”
Next I saw people raging hot in ire,
Slaying a youth with stones, and shouting loud:
“Martyr him! martyr him!” in tumult dire;
