I will send this man forthwith, and may it be with good fortune; and verily he is sent, bearing his boast in deed, (133) Megareus, the offspring of Creon, of the race of the sown; (134) who will go forth from the gates not a whit terrified at the noise of the mad snortings of the horses; but, either by his fall will fully pay the debt of his nurture to the land, or, having taken two men (135) and the city on the shield, will garnish with the spoils the house of his father. Vaunt thee of another, and spare me not the recital.
