Ein neuer Kampf harrt unser, häuft uns Leid zu Leid; 1
Der Mägde Busen tont von der Hånde Schlag.
Hebt an, ihr Mitjammernden,
70
Hebt an, ihr Mitweinenden,
Den Reigen, den Hades liebt!
Auf, zerfleischt euch Wang' und Busen blutigroth mit weißem Nagel!
Denn Todtenehren sind ein Schmuck den Lebenden.
Dritte Gegenstrophe.
