Chorus
From ancient times the sons of Erechtheus have been favored; [825] they are children of the blessed gods sprung from a holy land never pillaged by the enemy. They feed on wisdom most glorious, always stepping gracefully [830] through the bright air, where once, they say, the nine Pierian Muses gave birth to fair-haired Harmonia.
