T. 1427. 10 Trach. 94. " Cf. Ai. 845. 18 Ant. 100. Digitized by VaOOQ IC 31 to /cdWiarov do<; "stirred into rout " the Argive host. The rout took place at sun-rise, but it was the sun himself who rose and fought for Thebes. It is a vivid sense of the personality of nature that leads to such pathetic utterances as those of Ajax, when he says farewell to the scenes of his warfare, and either thanks them tor their nurture 1 — " ye fountains and rivers of this land, and plains of Troy that have nurtured me !" — or gently -chides them for their faithlessness 2 — " paths of the surg- ing deep, ye caverns by the sea and grove beside the strand, long time now, too long have ye kept me at Troy Ye streams of Scamander, my neighbors, kindly now to the Argives, no longer shall ye see me ! " Antigone, too, when deserted by man, turns in appeal* to " the fountains of Dirce and grove of Thebes," even as Polynices, in a similar plight, invokes the fountains and gods of his race.* But nowhere in Sophocles is the sympathy of Nature for suffering mortals more poetically set forth than in the r Philoctete8.
