Auch der Schiffe Zahl erblickten wir,
Sahn den unaussprechlichen
225
Wunderanblick, daß unser Auge sich
An dem holden Zauber såttige.
Rechts der Flotte Plan
Nahm mit funfzig stürmenden
Schiffen, von Phthiotis ausgesandt,

Ein der Myrmidonen Kriegesgott. 1
Und in goldhellen Bildern thronten hoch,
Als Achilleus' Heeresmal,
Nereus' Tochter auf dem Hinterschiff.
Zweite Gegenstrophe.

Notes on the current edition

Iphigenia in Aulis

1. The reading μείλινον ἁδονάν of the MSS. cannot be right, nor are may of the proposed emendations much more probable; in the absence of anything more intelligible, Markland’s μείλιχον is here adopted.
