Chorus
When swift breezes are hurtling sailors along, [480] a double intelligence at the helm and a throng of wise men put together is less effective than a lesser mind with full authority. The power to bring to pass in house and in city must be a single man's if men wish [485] to find their true advantage.
Euripides. Euripides, with an English translation by David Kovacs. Cambridge. Harvard University Press. forthcoming.
