EURIPIDES.
Admetus.
Abide with us, a sharer of our hearth.
Herakles.
Hereafter this: now must I hasten on.
Admetus.
O prosper thou, and come again in peace!
Through all my realm I publish to my folk
That, for these blessings, dances they array, 1155
And that atonement-fumes from altars rise.
For now to happier days than those o'erpast
Have we attained. I own me blest indeed.
Chorus.
O the works of the Gods—in manifold forms they reveal them:
Manifold things unhoped-for the Gods to accomplishment bring. 1160
And the things that we looked for, the Gods deign not to fulfil them;
And the paths undiscerned of our eyes, the Gods unseal them.
So fell this marvellous thing.
[Exeunt omnes.
