IPHIGENEIA IN TAURICA.
271

Forth, breezes! Waft ye Agamemnon's son
To Athens: even I will voyage with him,
Keeping my sister's holy image safe.


Chorus.

Speed with fair fortune, in bliss speed on1490
For the doom reversed, for the life re-won.
Pallas Athena, Queen adored
Of mortals on earth, of Immortals in heaven,
We will do according to this thy word:
For above all height to which hope hath soared
Is the glad, glad sound to our ears that is given.

Hail, reverèd Victory:
Rest upon my life; and me
Crown, and crown eternally.

[Exeunt omnes.
