Quote #10
(Athena): "Are they minded to find a path for their tongues to be kind?
From their fearsome countenance
I see great benefit to these citizens.
(to the jurors) If with goodwill towards goodwill you always do them great honour,
you will be wholly pre-eminent for keeping
both land and city on the straight way of justice. (987-995)
Even after the Furies have taken on their new role, Athena suggests, striking fear will still be an important part of their duties.
