Chorus
I for my part love peace. But I tell you, foolish king, if you come to this city, you will not win without further ado what you think to win. [375] You are not alone in possessing a spear and a shield overlaid with bronze. No, my lover of wars, kindly do not with your spear throw into turmoil the city [380] rich in graces, but stay your hand!
Euripides. Euripides, with an English translation by David Kovacs. Cambridge. Harvard University Press. forthcoming.
