Look, here comes your brother, condemned to die, and with him Pylades, most loyal of friends,

true as a brother, guiding his feeble steps, his yoke-fellow, pacing carefully.

καὶ μὴν ὅδε σὸς σύγγονος ἕρπει

ψήφῳ θανάτου κατακυρωθείς,

Sieh da: dort kommt dein Bruder heran,

Zum Tode verdammt durch des Volkes Beschluß;

Auch Pylades naht, der getreueste Freund
1005

Voll Brüderlichkeit,

Der sorglich den Schritt des Ermatteten lenkt,

Ihn liebendes Sinnes geleitet.
