6. Amphiaraus
(“Τοιαῦθ ὁ μάντις — βλαστάνει βουλευματα.” — Lines 587-591.)
“So spoke the prophet; and with awful port
Advanc’d his massy shield, the shining orb
Bearing no impress, for his gen’rous soul
Wishes to be, not to appear, the best;
And from the culture of his modest worth
Bears the rich fruit of great and glorious deeds.”
