The Reverend Chryses, Phœbus' chosen Priest.

"He to redeem his Daughter, sought the Shore,

Where lay the Greeks, and mighty Presents bore:

Deckt with the Ensigns of his God, he stands,

The Crown, the golden Sceptre in his Hands;

To all he su'd, but to the Princes most,

Great Atreus's Sons, the Leaders of the Host:

Princes! and Grecian Warriors! may the Gods

(The Pow'rs that dwell in Heav'ns sublime Abodes)

Give you to level Priam's haughty Tow'rs,
