PREFACE
THE text of the present edition of the Alcestis is
based upon a careful examination of the apparatuscriticus given in Prinz's edition, Leipsic, 1879.
Though I have sometimes been compelled to dissent
from the conclusions of that eminent scholar, the text
6 will not be found to exhibit any important deviations
either from his or those ordinarily in use.
In the lyric portions of the play, the arrangement
of the lines is generally that shown by Schmidt in his
Monodien u. Wechselgesinge, but the numbering of
Dindorfs Poetae Scenici has been preserved.
A few notes (on 11. 118, 546, 817, 983), added
since the first edition was printed, will be found at
p. 88.M. A. B.

INTRODUCTION.
1. The Story and the Play.
THE legend of Alkestis and Admetos may be briefly
told as follows: -Admetos was king of Phdrai in
Thessaly, and the hour came near when he should
die. But he was very loth to depart from life, and
besought the gods to spare him a little longer.
And Apollo, who loved him, spake and persuaded
the Fates, in whose hands are the lives of all men,
and they promised to spare Adinetos yet a little, if
he should find some other who would die in his place
at that time. Then Admetos asked many to do this
thing, but none was found that loved him well enough,save only his wife Alkestis; and she indeed died.
Now, on the day of her death Herakles came ' to
the king's house and found him sorrowing; andix
EYPI 11IOY AAKHETI.
Admetos told him not truly the cause thereof, but
set meat and drink before him, and went away to
bury his dead. Howbeit, while Admetos tarried at
the grave, Herakles learned the truth, and for his
friend's sake he went and fought with Death; and
each strove hard for the mastery, but Herakles pre-
vailed, and took Alkestis out of Death's hands and
brought her alive to Admetos. So the king's sorrow-
ing was turned into joy.
We are indebted for this affecting story, as for
that of the Ion, to Euripides alone. The present
play formed the last of a tetralogy (consisting of the
Kressai, Alkmaion on the Psophis, Telephos, Alkestis),with which the poet won the second prize in the year
B.C. 439; the first prize being won by Sophocles. It
is accordingly (with the possible exception of the
Rhesos, the authorship of which is doubtful), the
earliest of Euripides' extant works.
The Alkestis cannot properly be called a tragedy,since the conclusion is happy, but rather a tragi-
comedy or comedy (in the modern sense of that word).
On the other hand, it must not be confounded with
the Satyric dramas which usually held the last place
in a tetralogy, and of which we have a specimen in
INTRODUCTION. xl
the Cyclops. It holds this half-way position between
true tragedy and comedy in common with several
other of the author's plays, as for instance the Orestes,the Iphigenia in Tauris, and the Ion.

NOTES.
[In the following notes Synt. stands for Thomson's ElementaryGreek Syntax.]
1-76. Prologos.---Apollo briefly relates how, in return forthe respect shown to him while serving as the king's herd, hehas saved Admetos from death on condition that someone elseshall die for him. None save his wife Alkfstis is willing todo this thing, and she lies within breathing her last. Lestthe defilement of contact with the dead come upon him, thegod must abandon the house he has so long protected,for the feet of Death are drawing near. Death now enters,and jealously demands the reason of Apollo's presence in ahouse of mourning. Apollo replies by pleading for theQueen's life. Then, finding his endeavours useless, hemysteriously declares that there will soon arrive one strongerthan Death, who will rob him of his prey by force. Death,however, unmoved by the threat, enters the palace to do hiswork.
1. 4: an exclamation of pity. 'Ah, palace of Admetos!'2. rep emphasizes Ocds. It does not mean ' although'; the
participle of itself has this concessive force.4. Zeis, sc. deriv : this copula is almost always omitted in
poetry.-KTaKTvAS: Zeus was annoyed because Asklapios,founder of the healing art, brought the dead to life.-~odya,a thunderbolt, manufactured by the Kykl6pes who livedunder Mt. Aetna.
5. oi, gen. of cause.
6. KTelV : historic present.7. wOLVw', acc. in apposition to the sentence: cp. 'EXdCv
KTrciYJEv, MlE' CXey Xt7hPr rtKpCiv, Synt. 6. 2.

NOTES.
9. Es d8'e .' is rh5v' h ipav. The gen. is partitive: cp.Latin id temporis, ' at that time.'
10. 6o'-ou K..XA. : lit. I continually met with the son of Pheresas a holy man, i.e. ' I ever found the son of Pheres a holyman.'--6o-ov &vSps is an Oblique Predicate; cp. iKaviJrapdXoas T vy p/iprvpa, Synt. 18.
11. Oavetv for 0o0 Bavei : the article is often omitted inpoetry, rarely in prose. Cp. v. 419 n.
12. Sokwa-as. He is said to have intoxicated them withwine.- vE'-av : the obj. of the verb is [rb] "A6u. iKcvUyed. Seeprevious note.
13. 48aiv 'bv Trap.: 'present death.'17. A4Ls should strictly be ors, but has been attracted into
the gender of yvvauK6s.
18. KECVOV is for va70vo, merely to avoid ambiguity. Theuse must be imitated with caution.
19. XEpotv : not two hands and no more, but several pairs ofhands.
22. p. (a~o-a. Phoibos (Radiant), the god of Light andLife and Beauty, as well as Artemis, his sister, are especiallyspoken of as shrinking from contact with death and mourning.In less degree the same is true of all the Olympian gods.Death and Hades, the Fates, the Furies, Earth and theTitans, all belonged to the Chthonian dynasty which Zeus andthe Olympians supplanted, and with whom they naturallyheld the least possible amount of intercourse. The Chthonianswere the deities invented by primitive man in the days whenlife was difficult, and it was hard to contend successfullyagainst death and the forces of nature. They were theobjects of a gloomy worship, which formed the strongest con-trast to the brighter religion which succeeded it.
23. ~Xd&pwv K.T.X.: 'the dear shelter of this house.'24. TodvSE: BELKTLKWS, as very frequently; i.e. he points to
him. Transl. 'here.'25. ipqi. He offered the dead as sacrifices to the deities of
the lower world : cp. vv. 74-76. "ALSov. In Homer Hadesis always (with one exception) a person. The use of the wordto denote a place is later.

56. K&V (Kai dic) ... 6XTraL : 'even if she (shall) die an oldwoman.' ypais is Oblique Predicate: cp. v. 10 n.
57. Wrrps Trov iX~Vvrow K.r.X. 'In favour of the rich thoulayest down thy law.'
58. &Xkk' Ka K.T.k. ' Nay, can it be that (see Appendix A)thou art a philosopher, and I knew it not?' Lit. hast escapedmy notice being a philosopher? Death had drawn a generalconclusion from Apollo's words KV ypavO K.T.A., and his lastremark, v. 57, shows a desire to engage in an abstract discus-sion of this question of buying release from death. Apollosarcastically expresses surprise at Death's unsuspected talentfor Philosophy.
59. ovotvr' &v K.T.X. ' Those for whom it is possible to dieold, would purchase (the privilege)': i.e. those able to buythe privilege of dying old, would do so.-ypaois agrees witharovs, which would be the subject of laveuv, if a subject wereexpressed. It would be commoner to write ots rcipeorT Oa~avey)ypacots.
61. ov 8ia : ' No, indeed !' Cp. v. 389 n.
63. ravr' is emphatic. ' Thou wilt not be able to have allthat thou shouldst not have.' He has already had some un-lawful advantages.
65. rotos= roeo7ros. The form must not be used in prose.
67. 'vrrr. e8p.a: ' a team of four horses.' SXwgua, whichcommonly = chariot, could also be used (1) of the chariot andhorses together, (2) of the team only. Cp. v. 483, 7rTpwpovap sa.

75. eov : possessive gen. ; ' sacred (belonging) to.'
76. 5rov ... yvCo : a Limitative Descriptive clause, suchas in Latin is formed by qui or qui quidem with the subjunc-tive; 'that man..., the hair of whose head,' etc. Cp. v. 978.Note two things: (1) ocrus in such a clause does not differfrom rs, except in so far as it marks the person referredto, as belonging to a class,-a frequent use. (Do not translateby whosoever.) (2) There is no omission of Av: the particleis not wanted in clauses of this kind. Cp. v. 978 n.
Before actually sacrificing an animal, it was customary tocut off a few hairs from the forehead. These were calledKaTrpyp/Ta. Death as lepeb6s av6vrwv (v. 25) is here said to dothis to his victim Alkestis. Virgil was probably thinking ofthis passage when he wrote Aen. 4. 693-705, q.v.
77-135. Parodos.---' Why is the palace wrapped in silence ?And no one is here to tell us whether this best of wives stilllives or has passed away.-Does anyone hear sounds of mourn-ing ?-I hear none; yet surely they would not be thus silent,if she were dead.-Nay, she is dead.--In anywise she is notyet buried. I see no signs of funeral pomp before the house.-'Twas on this day she was to die.-Ah, thy words go to myheart !-Nought can save her.-No, none but Phoibos' sonAsklpios were he still alive.-Yea, at every altar have mylords made supplication, and in vain. There is no help.'
The different portions of the Parodos are delivered by fullchorus, semi-chorus, and individual singers. The paragraphsand dashes in the text indicate a change of speaker.
78. a-so-LCyla, 'is wrapped in silence.' The perf. tensedenotes a state following upon action.
88. As rrpa .yvwv : 'as (would be the case) if all wereover.' werrp. is gen. absol.
89. oZ merely anticipates of8 .- cldv is the Doric form ofv. In lyrics this broad Doric a will be found continually

in the fact that the latter vowel, which is of very frequent re-currence in Attic Greek, is an inconvenient one to sing.

92. IIaLav. In epic poetry Paian or Paion appears as thePhysician of the gods. After Homer the name and office ofDivine Healer are assigned to Apollo, who is here addressed.The cry < Iladv may be an expression either of anguish orjoy, according as the speaker is imploring help or singingthankfully of help received. As a common noun, raiav is atriumph-song addressed to any god; cp. v. 424.

162. WE-ras, ' the hearth.' It was an open fire in a brazierwhich stood somewhere in the aAn5. In niches near (perhapsin the wall behind the o-rria) were the images of the householdgods. As the hearth was the symbol of the home, the goddessAlkestis prays to, is probably Artemis, who was the Patronessof Marriage, and so a natural guardian of family life.--Forthe general plan of a Greek house see Dict.

TheChorus mean that if the man of noble birth follows hishereditary instincts he will be sure to act wisely, as Admetoshas done.

606-961. Fourth ire-r6S&ov.-Scene 1. Admetos with thefuneral procession comes out of the palace. They are met byPherbs, Admetos' father, who arrives with offerings forAlkbstis' tomb. Admetos breaks out on him with fury, andtells him that he wants neither his sympathy nor his gifts.He goes on to abuse with great violence both his father andhis mother for having refused to die for him. Consideringtheir age it was not much to ask, and it would have been agraceful thing for them to do. Pheres retorts that life isdear even to the old, and deals Admetos some home-thrustsanent his selfishness and cowardice in letting his young wifeperish, instead of boldly facing death for himself. At lastthe old man departs, reminding Admetos (by way of a parting

shot) that he has still to reckon with Alkestis' brotherAkastos. Admetos curses him as he goes, and his motheralso.
Neither speaker appears to much advantage in this painfulwrangle in the presence of the dead, but Pheres certainlyhas the best of the argument. The procession moves ontowards the grave.
Scene 2. A slave comes out of the palace complaining ofHerakles' uproarious and unseemly behaviour in a housewhich the hero must at least know to be a house of mourning,though he does not know that it is its mistress who is nomore. He is followed by Herakles, who rallies him on hisdismal appearance and gloomy manners. After some conver-sation, the servant says plainly that Alkestis is dead.Herakles is much shocked and vexed with himself, butdeclares that to make amends to his old friend he will go androb Death of his prey. Admetos shall confess that his noblehospitality has not been wasted.
Scene 3. Herakles having departed on his errand, Admetosreturns from the grave quite broken down, and giving vent tohis anguish in uncontrollable lamentations. He feels he can-not even enter the house again, where the cruel contrastbetween the present and the past will make life unbearable.The Chorus comfort him as best they can, and at last he goesin.

He asks Admetos to keep her for him until he comes back again.For various reasons the latter for a long time refuses to dothis, but in the end yields to the hero's persistence.

1038. The editors reading either &eXov or 4OXCovs take theadj. as being in this single instance of two terminations.This may of course be so; but it seems to me preferableto take d4Xov (for which there is an overwhelming pre-ponderance of authority) as masc. agreeing with 4o suggestedby E~js.

APPENDIX.
A.
The student should study the following list with care.The words and expressions contained in it, which are allfound in this play, are of constant recurrence, and theirmeaning and use should be known perfectly.
.AX' obv. The ouv marks a concession: 'but though thatis so'; 'but all the same.' Cp. v. 363.
&pa. See on vv. 228, 341.yE piv. 'At least, surely.' Cp. v. 516.yoiv (ye ov), 'at least,' ' at any rate.' See on XX' oirv.
Cp. v. 694.8' obv, ' however' : a weaker form of dX\' ov. Cp. v. 850.
Ka(, like &pa, introduces a question with great emphasis :'Can it be that... ?' 'Dare I hope that... ?' ' Dost meanthat ... ? '
l p.(v. Two particles of emphasis, doubled for the sake ofgreater force. 'Surely, of a truth,' 'Surely, indeed.'
Srrov. 'Surely, I ween.' rov properly expresses inde-finiteness (primarily indefiniteness of place) : 'somehow,' 'insome way.'
4-ji, like iam, most commonly=an emphatic 'now,' ' whenthis point was reached.' Both words occur less often in thesense of ' already.'-Similarly OvKTL often means ' not now':e.g. Ta vra diKO(oa OKETL ~ X 6e, 'when he heard this, he didnot now go forth' (as he had intended). Here the ordinary
89
EYPIIIIAOY AAKHITII.
meaning 'no longer' is unsuitable, since it implies the discon-tinuance of something that was previously being done, whichthe Greek sentence does not imply.
KaC y&p, 'for the fact is.' In poetry transl. 'for in truth,''for indeed.' Cp. vv. 370, 978.
Kal iAv prefaces and draws attention sharply to a state-ment for which the hearer is supposed to be unprepared.These particles are never of themselves adversative. Whenthey seem to be so, they are in reality accentuating stronglya statement that is in itself adversative. That is, they never='and yet': the proper Greek for this is KaTOL. COp. vv.369, 385, 653, 713, 1099.
The commonest use of the expression is to draw attention toa fresh arrival on the scene, when it may generally be trans-lated by, 'See here.'
KaL Irot ; KOt 7ro0 ; The explanation is the same as that ofKai 7rw ; and 7rls Kal; given below. Cp. vv. 482, 834, 1049.
KaL rAs; expresses incredulity or surprise: cp. vv. 142,1052. In wr4s KaG ;, on the other hand, the Kai, emphasizingthe words that follow, marks that a fact is assumed : cp.Hec. 515, 7ws Ka v V hErpCi~Tre; 'How did you (actually)dispatch her ?' Hecuba knows her daughter has been killed ;she now asks how it was done.
KaTOL : 'and yet.' Cp. vv. 290, 648.
pEv ov. If these words are to be taken together, theirmeaning is 'nay rather.' Cp. v. 821. Frequently howeverthey must be taken separately, in which case FIz is the ordi-nary antithetic particle, and oiv has its common meaning of' now ' or 'therefore.'
vvv (without accent) : an inferential particle, 'then,' ' there-fore.'
obKovv ; and obKO0v. When the odK is accented both partsof the word have their proper force, 'not, then?' Cp. v. 148.
90
APPENDIX.
When the ou is accented the force of the oiK is lost, so thatoVKOvz simply = ' therefore.'
oIro : 'not yet.'&crrEp : 'even as' (an emphatic js). Note that the word
never means ' as if.'
B.The Conditional Sentence.
The following simple scheme should be known perfectly.
(A) PRESENT TIME.
(a) el votei, c&LKe. If he is doing it, he is doing wrong.(p) el TroL7e, 981KeL V. If he were (now) doing it, he would be
doing wrong.
(B) PAST TIME.
(a) el r7re Irrote, 'i6iKeL (impfs.). If he was then doing it, he
was doing wrong.(p) el i7role, h&iKEL Vi, (impfs.). If he had been doing it, he
would have been doing wrong.(a) el irolvreei , r6i1KOEV (aor.). If he did it, he did wrong.(p) ei idrolv~, il1KyqeV li (aor.). If he had done it, he
zwodd have done wrong.
(c) FUTURE TIME.
(a) ei roc7~e (or more commonly idzv ro7a), aK'7le. If
he shall do it (or does it), he will do wrong.(p) ei eto o(or rot'vec), abcKOi lV (or ca&tKljelEc I). If he
were to do it, he would do wrong.NOTE.-Observe an essential difference between the sen-
tences marked (a) and those marked (j). In the latter,which always contain lv in the apodosis, the supposition is ineach case put less directly and forcibly than in the corre-sponding sentence marked (a).
