Suppliant Women - Closing

THESEUS

Athena, queen,I'll do as you direct me.

You steady me, keep me from going awry.

This man I'll blind with an oath. I only ask now:

Keep me on course. Look favorably on our city.

And then we'll manage safely for all time.

CHORUS

So, Adrastus, let's leave, having made our vow

to this man and his town. Those who've done so much

deserve our respect and compliance.
