O, der verlorenen Heerführer verlorne Mütter!
Weh, von erbleichender Furcht bebt mir das Herz im Busen!
590
Aber den Mann, der im Glück leuchtet, sturzt das Schicksal 2
Wieder hinab: darauf bau' ich in fester Hoffnung.
600
O kam' ich doch in deine schonumthurmte Stadt, 4
Vom Kallichoros fern, dem Born der Göttin! 5
610
O schuf ein Gott mir Flügel, truge mich
Zur Stadt am Doppelstrome hin! 6
Die vielgerufnen Götter ruf ich wieder an;
Das vor Allem weckt in der Furcht Vertrauen.
