Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from The Alcestis of Euripides: Rendered Into English Verse Alcestis. Apollo. O, dwelling of Admetus, where I bore A menial´s lot, although I am a god! Zeus was the cause, who having slain my son Asclepius, hurling lightning at his breast, I was enraged, and slew the Cyclopes, The forgers of the awful tire of Zeus. For this the father forced me to atone, And serve a mortal man in menial guise. And coming to this land, I watched the herds For him who entertained me, and preserved His house unto this day; and being myself Pious, I chanced to find a pious man, The son of Pheres, whom I saved from death, The fates beguiling. And the goddesses Granted me that Admetus should escape The death impending, giving in exchange Another victim to the powers beneath.
