Euripides, Bacchae, 337, as translated by Gilbert Murray (1902)

Is there not blood before thine eyes even now? Our lost Actaeon's blood, whom long ago His own red hounds through yonder forest dim Tore unto death, because he vaunted him Against most holy Artemis?

— Euripides on Actaeon

What It Means

This is a placeholder explanation generated by the low-overhead model. It interprets "Is there not blood before thine eyes even now? Our lost Actaeon's blood, whom long ago His own red hounds through yonder forest dim Tore unto death, because he vaunted him Against most holy Artemis?" in the context of "Euripides, Bacchae, 337, as translated by Gilbert Murray (1902)" to mean that wisdom is timeless.
