how many people I have visited, with no harm from association with me. Time purges all things, aging with them.
So now with a pure mouth I piously invoke Athena, lady of this land, to come to my aid. Without the spear,
she will win me and my land and the Argive people as faithful and true allies for all time. But whether in some region of the Libyan land, near the waters of Triton, her native stream, she is in action or at rest,[*]
aiding those whom she loves, or whether, like a bold marshal, she is surveying the Phlegraean [*] plain, oh, let her come—as a goddess, she hears even from far away—to be my deliverer from distress!
