What Alcestis would say when Admctus yoked a Lion and Boar to his Chariot

ἠνορέης κλυτὰ ἔργα τεὴν ἔστεψαν ἀπήνην,
καὶ νύμφην βοόωσιν ἀριστοπόνοις ὑμεναίοις.
— Paton edition

Great deeds of valour crowned thy chariot, and
with excellently composed wedding hymns men
celebrate thy bride.
— Paton edition

Paton Edition notes on Description: Pelias had promised his daughter Alcestis to whoever could do this.
