Herald, give the signal and restrain the crowd; and let the piercing Tyrrhenian[*] trumpet, filled with human breath, send forth its shrill blare to the people!
For while this council-hall is filling, it is good to be silent, and for my ordinances to be learned, by the whole city for everlasting time, and by these appellants, so that their case may be decided well.
Enter Apollo.
Chorus
Lord Apollo, be master of what is yours.
