Was weilst du am Haus, was wandelst du hier,
Phobos? Ein neues Vergeh'n, daß du die Macht
Der Bewohner des Hades schmålerst und hemmst!

Es genügte dir nicht, des Admetos Geschick
Zu verhindern, indem du die Mören berückt
Mit verschlagener Kunst; nun waffnest du dir
Aus's neue den Arm mit dem Bogen um sie,
Die, ihren Gemahl zu erldsen, sich selbst
35
In den Tod gibt, Pelias' Tochter.
