  1. A quotation from Euripides

    CHORUS: Many are the forms of what is unknown.
       Much that the gods achieve is surprise.
       What we look for does not come to pass;
       God finds a way for what none foresaw.
       Such was the end of this story.
     
    [ΧΟΡΟΣ: πολλαὶ μορφαὶ τῶν δαιμονίων,
       πολλὰ δ᾽ ἀέλπτως κραίνουσι θεοί:
       καὶ τὰ δοκηθέντ᾽ οὐκ ἐτελέσθη,
       τῶν δ᾽ ἀδοκήτων πόρον ηὗρε θεός.
       τοιόνδ᾽ ἀπέβη τόδε πρᾶγμα.]

    Euripides (485?-406? BC) Greek tragic dramatist
    Helen [Ἑλένη], l. 1688ff, final lines (412 BC) [tr. Lattimore (1956)]
