wind   sings   cheerful   in   the   cordage�察  �and   the  oars   flash   fast   among   the 

foam�     �How   sweet   it   is   to   roam across   the   ocean�察  �and   see   new   towns 

and wondrous lands�察�and           to come home laden with treasure�察�and to win 

undying fame��' 

     And the good ship ARGO heard him�察�and longed to be away and                       out 

at sea�察�till she stirred in every timber�察�and heaved from            stem to stern�察�and 

leapt   up   from   the   sand   upon   the   rollers�察 �and   plunged   onward   like   a 

gallant    horse�察  �and   the  heroes    fed   her   path   with   pine´trunks�察   �till  she 

rushed into the      whispering sea。 

     Then they stored her well with food and water�察�and pulled the                 ladder 

up on board�察�and settled themselves each man to his               oar�察�and kept time to 

Orpheus' harp�察�and away across the bay             they rowed southward�察�while the 

people lined the cliffs�察�and        the women wept�察�while the men shouted�察�at 

the starting of     that gallant crew。 



     PART IV ´ HOW THE ARGONAUTS SAILED TO 



                                     COLCHIS 



       AND what happened next�察�my children�察�whether it be true or                     not�察�

stands   written   in   ancient   songs�察  �which   you   shall   read    for   yourselves 

some day。       And grand old songs they are�察           �written in grand old rolling 

verse�察�and they call them the          Songs of Orpheus�察�or the Orphics�察�to this 

day。    And they tell      how the heroes came to Aphetai�察�across the bay�察�and 

waited     for   the   south´west   wind�察  �and   chose   themselves   a   captain   from 

their   crew�此    �and    how    all  called   for  Heracles�察   �because    he   was    the 

strongest   and   most   huge�察  �but   Heracles   refused�察  �and   called      for   Jason�察�

because he   was the   wisest of   them all。        So   Jason    was chosen   captain�察�

and Orpheus heaped   a  pile of   wood�察�and            slew  a  bull�察 �and   offered  it   to 

Hera�察�and called all the        heroes to stand round�察�each man's head crowned 

with   olive�察  �and   to   strike   their   swords   into   the   bull。 Then   he   filled   a 

golden goblet with the bull's blood�察�and with wheaten flour�察                 �and honey�察�

and   wine�察  �and   the bitter   salt´sea   water�察 �and   bade  the   heroes   taste。   So 



                                               55

each   tasted   the   goblet�察  �and   passed   it round�察  �and   vowed   an   awful   vow�此�

and   they  vowed   before   the      sun�察  �and   the   night�察  �and   the   blue´haired   sea 

who shakes the         land�察�to stand by Jason faithfully in the adventure of the 

golden     fleece�察  �and    whosoever      shrank    back�察  �or   disobeyed�察    �or   turned 

traitor   to  his   vow�察  �then   justice   should    minister    against     him�察  �and   the 

Erinnues who track guilty men。 

     Then   Jason   lighted   the   pile�察  �and   burnt   the   carcase   of   the bull�察  �and 

they went to their ship and sailed eastward�察�like              men who have a work to 

do�察�and the place from which they went                was called Aphetai�察�the sailing´ 

place�察�from that day forth。            Three thousand years and more they sailed 

away�察�into the       unknown Eastern seas�察�and great nations have come and 

gone     since   then�察  �and   many   a   storm   has   swept   the   earth�察  �and   many   a 

mighty armament�察�to which ARGO would be but one small boat�察                        �English 

and French�察�Turkish and Russian�察�have sailed those                  waters since�察�yet the 

fame   of   that   small   ARGO   lives   for   ever�察    �and   her   name   is   become   a 

proverb among men。 

     So they sailed past the Isle of Sciathos�察�with the Cape of                  Sepius on 

their    left�察 �and   turned   to   the  northward      toward     Pelion�察    �up   the  long 

Magnesian shore。          On their right hand was           the open sea�察�and on their 

left old Pelion rose�察�while the         clouds crawled round his dark pine´forests�察�

and his caps of       summer snow。         And their hearts yearned for the dear old 

mountain�察�as they thought of pleasant days gone by�察�and of                    the sports of 

their boyhood�察�and their hunting�察�and their             schooling in the cave beneath 

the cliff。    And at last Peleus       spoke�察�'Let us land here�察�friends�察�and climb 

the dear  old      hill   once  more。     We   are  going  on   a  fearful   journey�察  �who 

knows      if   we   shall   see  Pelion    again�拭   �Let    us  go   up   to  Cheiron     our 

master�察�and ask his blessing ere we start。              And I have a boy�察        �too�察�with 

him�察  �whom   he   trains   as   he   trained   me   once   ´   the   son    whom   Thetis 

brought me�察�the silver´footed lady of the sea�察             �whom I caught in the cave�察�

and   tamed   her�察  �though   she   changed        her   shape   seven   times。     For   she 

changed�察�as I held her�察�into          water�察�and to vapour�察�and to burning flame�察�

and to a rock�察      �and to a black´maned lion�察�and to a tall and stately tree。 

But I held her and held her ever�察�till she took her own shape                    again�察�and 

led   her   to   my   father's   house�察  �and   won   her   for   my bride。    And   all   the 



                                                56

rulers of Olympus came to our wedding�察                �and the heavens and the earth 

rejoiced together�察�when an          Immortal wedded mortal man。              And now let 

me see my son�察�for         it is not often I shall see him upon earth�此         �famous he 

will    be�察�but short´lived�察�and die in the flower of youth。' 

     So Tiphys the helmsman steered them to the shore under the                    crags of 

Pelion�察   �and    they  went    up   through    the   dark   pine´   forests   towards    the 

Centaur's cave。 

     And they came into the misty hall�察�beneath the snow´crowned                       crag�察�

and   saw   the   great   Centaur   lying�察  �with   his   huge   limbs  spread   upon   the 

rock�察  �and   beside   him   stood   Achilles�察  �the     child   whom   no   steel   could 

wound�察�and played upon his harp               right sweetly�察�while Cheiron watched 

and smiled。 

     Then Cheiron leapt up and welcomed them�察�and kissed them                         every 

one�察�and set a feast before them of swine's flesh�察�and                venison�察�and good 

wine�察  �and   young   Achilles   served   them�察  �and       carried   the   golden   goblet 

round。     And after supper all the         heroes clapped their hands�察�and called 

on Orpheus   to   sing�察     �but he   refused�察 �and said�察 �'How  can   I�察 �who   am  the 

younger�察     �sing   before
