Herrliche Schiffe, die mit zahllosen Rudern
Einst hinflogen vor Ilios,
(er geht ab.)
Im Chor tanzend mit der Nereïden Schwarm,
430
Wo, von der Flöte Tönen entzückt,
Der Delphin um die blauen Schnabel
Im Wirbel sich schwang,
Der zu des Simois Ufern nach
Troas Thetis' erhabnen Sohn,
435
Flüchtiger Renner Achilleus, dich
Und Agamemnon geleitet!
Erste Gegenstrophe.
