Mit Hellas' erlesenster Blüthe
810
Zog er daher, ob den Rossen erzurnt :
An des Simois breithinstromender Flut
Band er das Schiff, das die Meere durchwallt, mit den
Tauen des Spiegels,
Nahm aus der Barke die treffende Wehr, die Troja's
Könige sendet den Tod, und die thurmenden Mauern Apollons
815
Mit rothem Gluthauche des Feuers verheerend, begrub er Troja's Land in Leid,
Und in dem doppelten Sturm warf zweimal die Dardanosstadt
Sein blutiger Speer in den Staub hin.
Zweite Strophe.
