Tochter von Pelias' Stamm,
Froh wohne mir nun in des Schattenreiches
Heimland, in dem sonnenlosen Hause!
Doch Aides wiss' es, der Gott mit dem dunkelen Haar, und der Alte,
Welcher am Steuer gebeut, jener Seelenschiffer,
430
Er habe die beste Frau, die beste,
Wohl über den Acheron geleitet
Mit dem Doppelruder.
Gegenstrophe 1.
