Ihr beschwingten jugendlichen Töchter Ge's, jungfrauliche
Sirenen! Daß ihr meinem Schmerz mit Libya's Rohrfldten, mit
Syringen nahtet, unversiegende
Thränen zollend meinem Leide, Lied um Lied und Klag' um
Klage;
Daß Persephassa Trauersangeschdre,
170
Zu meinem Grame stimmend,
Sendet'! Ich sång', ihre Wonne, Lieder
Um die Todten unter Zähren ihr hinab in's Haus der Nacht.
Der Chor tritt auf. Erste Gegenstrophe.
