Chorus
And he came to those minstrel maids,
to their orchard in the west, to pluck from the leafy apple-tree its golden fruit, when he had slain the tawny dragon, whose terrible coils were twined all round to guard it;
395
and he made his way into ocean’s lairs, bringing calm to men that use the oar.
