Chorus
By the will of the gods we inhabit an unconquered city, and the rampart withstands the enemy throng. [235] What indignation makes you resent this? Eteocles
I do not begrudge your honor of the divine race; but lest you make the citizens cowardly, be calm and do not be overly fearful.
Aeschylus. Aeschylus, with an English translation by Herbert Weir Smyth, Ph. D. in two volumes. 1. Seven Against Thebes. Herbert Weir Smyth, Ph. D. Cambridge, MA. Harvard University Press. 1926.
