for

Which is for mortals of all things the best.

If haply he show mercy. For he is

For these things the Immortal doth enjoin

Will be for cities--in a foreign land.

Nor shall the forest wood be cut for fire.

Destruction; for they'll purpose to despoil

For truthful is God's spirit in the world.

For he himself, great, present far and wide,

For not the hand of evil war, but rather

The immortal God loves those men; for all things

For forest wood shall not be cut for

For forest wood shall not be cut for

Do not move Camarina; for 'tis better

Ready for mighty contest. And serve God

Upon men. For all-mother earth shall yield

Perfect for men, touching whatever things

For he alone is God, there is no other;

And do not murder; for the Immortal One

Shall he raise up for ages, who once gave

But what God gave for faithful men to honor;

For mortal temple of the mighty God

For crossing and for sailing; for all peace

For crossing and for sailing; for all peace

For crossing and for sailing; for all peace

For they are judges and the righteous kings

Among mankind; for of the mighty God

For he who made the heaven and earth gave thee

In bonds shall lead them; for he will make beasts

For over them shall be the hand of God.

For Hellas to proclaim to all the wrath

For he showed me what happened formerly

For when the world was deluged with a flood

For he has not for his abode a stone

For he has not for his abode a stone

For he may not be seen from earth nor measured

Of springs perennial, creatures meant for life,

For he himself by bringing them to pass

Nor shameful longing for another's bed

For slow is the whole race of human kind

And for six generations hold the power

For two generations only shall exult;

Shall boast the scepter there shall be for Thebes

Of Patara for its impieties.

Also for thee, Armenia, there remains

And many for the throne with blood

For that they without reason shall destroy

For former deeds and expiate with praise

But with a fondness for strange lack of sense

For Philip a dead body (not of Zeus,

For peoples and put all things under him;

Three hundred for his first initial sign,

Who shall for first initial have twice ten;

For mortals; and the pleasure of the land

For of old ruling mightily the land

Thou shalt for such things suffer penalty

For thee shall there be right among the blessed;

Speak out for the last time, when men shall be

Which things it is not right for me to mention,

And Zeus and Hermes (king). And as for thee,

For thy pride thou shalt pay as many things

No more for thee shall flow luxurious drink . . .

For there shall come a Persian on thy dale,

So that there shall remain for wretched mortals

Alas, alas for thee, unhappy heart!

Alas, alas for thee, O Lycia;

And there shall be for Phrygia fearful wrath

Because of sorrow for which Rhea came,

Applause for his sweet Songs, shall put to death

Abhor; for he slew many and laid hands

For when this man appeared the whole creation

Hating thy soil; for thou didst have desire

For sorcery, adulteries were with thee

And the river Tiber shall lament for thee,

The double city, be for ages silent,

And thou shalt make atonement for all things

For thee? Thou shalt not even to the time

Filled with much blood; for evil things

Together fear; for when with these the course

Which is ill thee; for when with pliant threads

As it hath been appointed. For to him

The flesh of parents. For unto all men

By evil fates surrounded, for mankind

Of evils, and for men a great curse, who

Of mortals wished for thee? Who has not been

Speech dripping honey, fair drink for all men,

And grief shall come in that day. For mankind

Their trophies for an age of evil men.

Flower longed for by him only, goodly light

Shall flow for all the just; for in one God,

Shall flow for all the just; for in one God,

Alas, alas for thee, O Sardis; and alas

For Trallis much beloved; alas, alas,

And for her temple search which is no more.

Shall then be great woe; for the Thunderer

For Smyrna also, weeping her Lycurgus,

Having a sign, shall know for what they toiled.

Alas for thee, cease from thy revelry.

For thou, O God, in kindness didst regard

Even like a river for the swimming fish.

With the Pisidians, all equipped for war
