blight past all cure a land of mortals. I also rely on Zeuswhat need is there to mention that?—and I alone of the gods know the keys to the house where his thunderbolt is sealed. But there is no need of that. So yield to my persuasion
and do not hurl the words of a reckless tongue against the land, that all things bearing fruit will not prosper. Calm the black waves bitter anger, since you will receive proud honors and will live with me. And when you have the first-fruits of this great land forever,
offerings on behalf of children and of marriage rites, you will praise my counsel.
