talis erat; medias etiam non destitit urbes, quidquid et Asopon veteresque interiacet Argos, inflammare odiis, multumque et ubique retexens: legatum sese Graia de gente petendis isse super regnis profugi Polynicis, at inde vim, noctem, scelus, arma, dolos; ea foedera passum regis Echionii, fratri sua iura negari.
Such was Tydeus. Nor did he cease to inflame the cities on his way, whatever lies between Asopos and ancient Argos, retelling the tale everywhere over and over; how he had gone as envoy from a people of Greece to seek exiled Polynices kingdom, but then came violence, night, crime, weapons, treachery. Such the Echionian monarchs pledge as he had suffered it. The brother was denied his rights.
