Du gebarst auch ja den Sohn einst, o Gebieterin,
Und erheitertest das Gemuth deines Gemahles:
Jezt theile mir mit
Freundlichen Nath, theil' ihn mit mir, die sich in Gram über den Tod
55
Jener verzehrt, die sie gebar!
O bestimm', Edle, den Sohn, welchen wir anflehn,
Daß er hinzieht an Ismen's Flut und der Jünglinge
Leichen zuruckschafft, endlich zu ruh'n im Marmorgrab!
Zweite Gegenstrophe.
