Phoenissae
Chorus of Phoenician maidens sent as a tithe to Apollo at Delphi, present throughout as commentators, singers and interlocutors.
And I became the handmaid of Phoebus, dedicated like his statues of wrought gold.
thus our city, through an endless succession of various blessings, has set herself upon the heights, crowned with the glory of war.
Would I were free of fear and circling in the dance of the deathless god, having left Dirce for the valleys of Phoebus at the center of the world.
