356. " Hik. 429-55; v. also Fr. 429.
34 THE ETHICS OF EURIPIDES and the delectation of the audience. He condemns tyranny and com- mends written law, whereby rich and poor, and strong and weak, have equal hearing and equal redress. Such equaUty is justice.

As we have seen, he believes that justice is the gods' care and obtains a deep and universal self-fulfilment. Though occasional characters cry out that rapacious and ruthless power is so successful and complain : ToXets re ixiKpas olSa Tifiuaas deods, a'i /xetfovwf icKvovai, dvaci^earepctiv Xoyxvs aptfffiQ irXeiovos Kparovnivai, (From Fragment 288) yet the conviction is strong that oiiSets cTpartvaas oSt/ca trcos ^\9ev waXiv, (Fragment 355) and " foohsh are they who gather virtue with the point of the spear; if battle is to decide, never will strife depart from cities of mankind." ^^ In fact, it is entirely due to evil' of man that there is injustice abroad; for " the gods' deeds are just, but among wicked men they sicken and fall into confusion." ^' The hidden world works for justice, for equality among men, and for requital of good and evil.
