dauernder Schmerz und Gram um die Freund'
In der Erd' Abgrund! - Was wehrtest du mir,
Mich zu stürzen in's Grab, in die gåhnende Kluft,
Um dort bei ihr, der vortrefflichsten Frau,
885
Im Tode zu ruhn?
Zwei Leben für eins hått' Aïdes dann,
Die getreusten, zumal, die beide vereint
Wohl über den Acheron schifften.
Strophe 2.
