Leader of the Chorus: O father, warily to us aware
Thy words are spoken, and thy wisdom's hest
My mind shall hoard, with Zeus our sire to aid.

Danaus: Even so-with gracious aspect let him aid.

Leader: Fain were I now to seat me by thy side-

Danaus: Now dally not, but put our thought in act.

Leader: Zeus, pity our distress, or e'er we die.

Danaus: If so he will, your toils to joy will turn.

Leader: Lo, on this shrine, the semblance of a bird.
