Das dich am Brautsest schmucken sollte, wann du dich 1
Dereinst vermählt der ersten Tochter Asia's,
Mit schönem Phrygerkleide schmuck' ich jezo dich.
Auch du, der stolze Vater einst unzähliger
Siegsmale, Hektors theurer Schild, nimm deinen Kranz!
1205
Nie wirst du sterben, stirbst du mit dem Todten auch. 2
Denn hoher Ehren bist du werth, viel werther als
Die Wehr des schlauen Bosewichts aus Ithaka.
