Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from Poems Scene. - Temple at Delphi. Stranger. O Priestess of Apollo, who art seated At the earth-oracle, year after year Dealing the messages of Zeus to men, Tell me what means this concourse at the temple, For coming with a message to the shrine From distant Lacedæmon, I beheld Guards clad in brazen armour, and the gates Held as in towns besieged, and through the city Not priests or victims, but a frightened band Of townsmen, men and women, talking o´er Some new event, of which I pray thee tell. Priestess. Stranger, though but a servant of the temple, Not versed in high affairs, as those within, An answer I can give, and in few words. For we who guard the secret of the God Here in his rocky glen, and pass our lives Around the tripod, are not more secure From war´s alarms, than ye who range the plain.
