Ich wand des Haares Locken mir hinauf mit Bändern, ordnete,
In goldner Spiegel
Endlose Schimmer hineinblickend,
900
Um dann auf das Lager hinzusinken.
Da lief ein Tosen durch die Stadt,
Und über Troja's Veste scholl lauter Ruf:
Wann, Achaia's Söhne, zerstöret ihr, wann,
Ilios' Warten, und kehrt
905
Zurück zur Våterheimat?
Gegenstrophe 2.
