Meaning
The Muses are guiding queens of powerful intelligence at LXXVI.6, after being called nurturers of soul and right-directors of thought. The feminine plural agent noun presents guidance as an active benefit. It does not establish a human teaching institution or a division of one Muse per mental faculty.
