Göttin, am Dreiweg waltend, o Kind Demeter's,
Die du den Pfaden der Nacht gebietest
Und den Pfaden des Tag's, o lenke die Fülle der todbringenden Becher zum Ziele, wohin sie meine
Hohe Gebieterin sendet, - des Bluts
1035
Tropfen vom Nacken der erdgebornen Gorgo, -
Zu dem, der kühn nach dem Thron
Der Erechthiden begehrt!
Daß doch ein andrer Sproß andern Stamms
Nimmer die Stadt beherrsche,
1040
Als ein Sohn aus Erechtheus' edlem Blut!
Erste Gegenstrophe.
