Neulich erzählte mir Einer in Nauplios' Port,
Der von Troja gekommen,
Welche Bilder, die Schrecken des
450
Phrygervolkes, den Umkreis
Deines gepriesenen Schildes dir
Schmuckten, Achilleus.
Auf dem Felde des Reises hielt
Perseus, mordend über die See
455
Mit geflügelten Fußsohlen einherschwebend, die Gorgo,
Samt Zeus' Gesandten, Hermes,
Dem Sohn Maja's, der Fluren Hüter.
Zweite Gegenstrophe.
