Leader of the Chorus
Let us now devote ourselves to the sports which the women are accustomed to celebrate here, when time has again brought round the mighty Mysteries of the great goddesses, the sacred days which Pauson himself honors by fasting [950] and would wish feast to succeed feast, that he might keep them all holy. Spring forward with a light step, whirling in mazy circles; [955] let your hands interlace, let the eager and rapid dancers sway to the music and glance on every side as they move.
