Ueber den Dächern stehend, umgähnt'
Er den siebenthorigen Mund
Mit blutlechzenden Speeren rings,
Und floh, eh' in unserem Blut

Sich sein gieriger Schlund
Schwelgend füllt und ehe den Kranz der Thürme
Flammenglut des Hephästos fraß.
Also braust' im Rücken umher
Donner des Kriegs; schwer wurde der Kampf
125
Dem anstürmenden Drachen.

Creon
Wisdom by him, by one so green in years?
HEM. Nothing that is not just: though few my years,
Not what my age, but what is right regard.
Is it then just to favour those, who dare
To disobey?
I wish no favour.
To those, whose deeds are ill,
Hath not she been found
Deep-tainted with this ill ?
Not such the voice
Of Thebes through all its state.

Chorus
Shaft of the sun, fairest light of all that have dawned on
Thebes
of the seven gates, you have shone forth at last, eye of golden day, advancing over Dirce’s streams!
100
You have goaded with a sharper bit the warrior of the white shield, who came from
Argos
in full armor, driving him to headlong retreat.

Chorus
He set out against our land because of the strife-filled claims of Polyneices, and like a screaming eagle he flew over into our land, covered by his snow-white wing,
110
with a mass of weapons and crested helmets.

Chorus
He paused above our dwellings; he gaped around our sevenfold portals with spears thirsting for blood; but he left
before his jaws were ever glutted with our gore, or before the Fire-god’s pine-fed flame had seized our crown of towers.
120
So fierce was the crash of battle swelling about his back, a match too hard to win for the rival of the dragon.

Chorus
For Zeus detests above all the boasts of a proud tongue. And when he saw them advancing in a swollen flood,
arrogant their clanging gold, he dashed with brandished fire one who was already starting to shout victory when he had reached our ramparts.

Chorus
Staggered, he fell to the earth with a crash,
torch in hand, a man possessed by the frenzy of the mad attack, who just now was raging against us with the blasts of his tempestuous hate. But his threats did not fare as he had hoped, and to the other enemies mighty Ares dispensed each their own dooms with hard blows,

Ares, our mighty ally at the turning-point.

For the seven captains, stationed against an equal number at the seven gates, left behind their brazen arms in tribute to Zeus the turner of battle—all but the accursed pair who, born of one father and one
mother, set against each other their spears, both victorious, and who now share in a common death.

But since Victory whose name is glory has come to us, smiling in joy equal to the joy of chariot-rich

But look, the king of the land is coming here, Creon, the son of Menoeceus, our new ruler in accordance with the new circumstances fated by the gods. What policy is he setting in motion,
