OVID's

METAMORPHOSES.


BOOK VII.


Translated by Mr. Tate and Mr. Stonestreet.

The Story of Medea and Jason.

THE Argonauts now stemm'd the foaming Tide,
And to Arcadia's Shore their Course apply'd;
Where sightless Phineus spent his Age in Grief,
But Boreas' Sons engage in his Relief;
And those unwelcome Guests, the odious Race
Of Harpyes, from the Monarch's Table chase.
With Jason then they greater Toils sustain,
And Phasis' slimy Banks at last they gain.
