Da war's, da verrückte
715
Der Sterne leuchtende Bahn
Zeus und Helios' lichten Glanz
Und der Eos schimmerndes Antliz,
Trieb sie durch das Gebiet des Westes,
Daß es die gottliche Flamme durchgluht,
720
Und die Wassergewölke nach Norden;
Und Ammons durstende Wüsten
Verschmachteten, da kein Thau,
Da kein Regen sie nezt, Zeus' holde Gabe.
Zweite Gegenstrophe.
