Then I tamed my pride and came to win thee to my heart, and the Gods set another shape upon me so thou sayest and in that shape, the shape of her thou seekest, thou didst make me wife to thee. Perchance she and I are one, Odysseus. At the least, not so readily had I forsaken thee. Oh, when thou didst stand in thy might holding those dogs at bay till the Sidonian knave cut thy bowstring "
The record of "Judges" is incomplete, and does not enable us even to fix the date of the Sidonian "oppression." We can only say that it was anterior to the judgeship of Jephthah, and was followed, like the other "oppressions," by a "deliverance."
She was alone save for Kurri the Sidonian, who followed her, and she walked wildly as one distraught who knows not where she goes nor why. Helen saw her also. "Who is this royal lady that draws near?" she asked of Rei. "It is Meriamun the Queen; she whom the Wanderer hath brought to shame." "Stay then, I would speak with her." "Nay, nay," cried Rei. "She loves thee not, Lady, and will slay thee."
Separate autonomy of the Phoenician cities No marked predominance of any one or more of them during the Egyptian period, B.C. 1600-1350 A certain pre-eminence subsequently acquired by Aradus and Sidon Sidonian territorial ascendancy Great proficiency of Sidon in the arts Sidon's war with the Philistines Her early colonies Her advances in navigation Her general commercial honesty Occasional kidnapping Stories of Io and Eumaeus Internal government Relations with the Israelites.
When the Sidonian heard these words he cried aloud with fear, for he well knew that as the Queen said so it would be done to him. Instantly he drew the great knife and rushed upon the veiled woman.
The tears, the "mighty groan," burst forth again as in the tapestry of the Sidonian temple he sees pictured anew the story of Hector's fall. In the hour of his last combat the thought of his brother-in-arms returns to him, and the memory of Hector is the spur to nobleness and valour which he bequeaths to his boy.
It gives an account of the revolt of the King of Moab against Jehoram, King of Israel, 890 B.C. The most important inscription of the Sidonian type is that on the magnificent sarcophagus of a king of Sidon, now one of the glories of the Louvre.
And I will crave this boon of Pharaoh, that mine shall be the hand to torment thee night and day till at last thou diest, cursing the day that thou wast born." The Wanderer looked upon him and answered: "There thou liest, thou Sidonian dog, for this is written in thy face, that thou thyself shalt die within an hour and that strangely." Then Kurri shrank back scowling.
Here to Juno was Sidonian Dido founding a vast temple, rich with offerings and the sanctity of her godhead: brazen steps rose on the threshold, brass clamped the pilasters, doors of brass swung on grating hinges. First in this grove did a strange chance meet his steps and allay his fears; first here did Aeneas dare to hope for safety and have fairer trust in his shattered fortunes.
She had engaged in war with the powerful nation of the Philistines, and, though worsted in the encounter, had obtained a reputation for audacity. Sidonian metal-work was particularly in repute.
