As he dies, he remembers his beloved Argos.

Line 782Virgil
Te spectem, suprema mihi cum venerit hora,
Et teneam moriens deficiente manu.Tibullus
Argos is the land of your fathers.
Isocrates
The hat is the ultimum moriens of "respectability".
Oliver Wendell Holmes
So let's not exaggerate.
The light is good; and those coming are good,
their words and actions also good.
And let's hope all goes well.
But Argos can do without the house of Atreus.
Ancient houses are not eternal.Constantine P. Cavafy
There is no doubt that this tradition of a superimposed Greek house was widely believed by the Macedonians[...] There was a persistent, well attested tradition in antiquity that told of a group of Greeks from Argos -descendants of Temenus, kinsman of Heracles- who came to Macedonia and established their rule over the Makedones, unifying them and providing a royal house.
