Ich aber feiert' in meinem Haus
Damals die Bergbewohnerin,
Die Tochter Zeus', Artemis,
Mit Reigentanz, die Jungfrau:
Da tonte Mordgeschrei 1
555
Die Stadt herauf zu Pergamos'
Felssiz, und traute Kinder schmiegten sich erschreckt
Mit scheuen Hånden an's Gewand der Mutter an.
Der Feind stieg aus dem Hinterhalt,
(Dein Werk, hohe Pallas!)
560
Und Mord an Phrygeraltaren, Mord
In Ruheståtten, wo die Junglinge zerstreut, 2
Von den Ihren verlassen, der Tod ereilt,
Wand den Siegeskranz, o Hellas,
Männerernährende, dir,
565
Schus Gram Ilions Volke!
(zu Hekabe)
