>> then transcends Euripides' imagination

And the process itself will be Bacchaean, marked by the luxury of gold, sacred piping and the heavy beat of drums amidst Phrygian shouts and cries ...

Ô ite bakchai,
ô ite bakchai,
Tmôlou chrusoroou chlidai
melpete ton Dionuson
barubromôn hupo tumpanôn,
euia ton euion agallomenai theon
en Phrugiaisi boais enopaisi te,
lôtos hotan eukelados
hieros hiera paigmata bremêi, sunocha
phoitasin eis oros eis oros.

"Go, Bacchae, go, Bacchae,
with the luxury of Tmolus that flows with gold,
sing of Dionysos, beneath the heavy beat of drums,
celebrating in delight the god of delight
with Phrygian shouts and cries,
when the sweet-sounding sacred pipe sounds a sacred playful tune
suited to the wanderers, to the mountain, to the mountain!"

-- Euripes, Bacchae 155
