ἐγὼ μὲν οὖν πείσομαι – I will at least obey
τοῖς βεβῶσιν – those who are established
ἐν τέλει – in chief authority
αἰτοῦσα τοὺς ὑπὸ χθονὸς praying – to those underground
ἴσχειν ξύγγνοιαν,- to have indulgence
ὡς βιάζομαι τάδε – because I am violated in these things.
οὔτοι συνέχθειν, ἀλλὰ συμφιλεῖν ἔφυν
I was born to join in love, not hate
