Am ringsumwogten Gestade beherrscht,

Ich freue mich, lächelt das Glück dir.

Da faßt mich die Angst, ich erbebe vor Furcht,
Wie das Auge des flatternden Täubchens.

So hat von der jüngst entschwundenen Nacht
Uns mächtiger Schreck und Entsezen erfüllt
Bei dem schmähenden Ruf, du hab'st in der Au,
In der Rosse Gefild' einstürmend, dem Heer
Das erbeutete Vieh,
145
Das übrig allein von dem Raube noch war,
Mit flammendem Eisen gemordet.
Solch höhnende Reden ersinnt uns keck,
Und zischelt Odysseus Allen in's Ohr,
Und sie glauben ihm leicht; denn er meldet von dir,
150
Was gerne man glaubt, und wer es vernimmt,
Der freut sich noch mehr, denn der es erzählt,
Treibt Spott mit deiner Bedrängniß.
Denn send' auf mächtige Geister den Pfeil,
Nie fehlst du das Ziel; wer aber von uns
155
Solch Arges erzählt, dem glauben sie nicht.
Stets kriecht ja der Neid an die Großen heran.
Und dennoch sind, von den Großen getrennt,
Die Geringen der Burg ein betrüglicher Schuz;
Mit dem Großen ja hebt der Geringe sich leicht,
160
Und der Große, gestüzt von dem Kleinen, empor.
Doch ist es unmöglich, der Thoren Geschlecht
Von diesem Gesez zu belehren.
Solch alberner Männer Geschrei stürmt, Herr,
Auf dich, und uns ward nimmer die Kraft,
165
Dawider zu steh'n, so gesondert von dir.
Denn, flohen sie dir aus den Blicken hinweg,
Dann tosen sie laut, wie Vögel im Schwarm;
Doch bebten sie scheu vor dem mächtigen Aar,
Und verkröchen, sobald du plözlich erschienst,
170
Sich alsbald schweigend und lautlos.

Will not the watchful hind, who, void of sleep,
Hangs laborious o'er the deep 1
From high Olympus will no pitying god,
Will no kind Naiad of the flood.
Tell us where he bent his way 1
For oh ! 'tis dreadful, wearied thus, to rove,
Whilst all our pains successless prove
890
To reach the destined goal, or And the man we love.

This, Joy, is thy enraptured hour ;
I feel thy fierce tumultuous pow'r.
Pan, Iö Pan, wild wanderer o'er each strand,
From Cyllene's craggy brow
Cover'd with perpetual snow,
Amidst the gods thou leader of the band.
Pan, Iö Pan, O king advance,
And share thine own invented dance;
Such Gnossus sees, and Nysa's height;
Such measures now my bounding foot delight.
Hast'ning o'er th' Icarian main,

Royal Phœbus, Delian king,

'Midst my joy thy presence deign,
695
And with thee all thy grace benignant bring!

Now all our dark'ning sorrow flies,
And the war brightens to our eyes :
Now all is transport; now the welcome day
Drives the sickly gloom of night;
Now, O Jove, the glorious light
Our ships revisits with its cheering ray:
For Ajax now no more retains
A sense of his distracting pains;
Again his pious thoughts assign
Just honours to the gods, and rites divine.
Strong, O Time, thy withering pow'r:
Bright thou bring'st Hope's gladsome hour!
Our lord no more with anger burns,
And to the royal Chiefs his soul returns.
This, Joy, is thy enraptured hour ;

Chorus
Was it Artemis ruler of bulls, Zeus’s daughter, that drove you, O powerful Rumor, O mother of my shame,
drove you against the herds of all our people? Was she exacting retribution, perhaps, for a victory that had paid her no tribute, whether it was because she had been cheated of the glory of captured arms, or because a stag had been slain without gifts for recompense? Or can the bronze-cuirassed Lord of War
175
have had some cause for anger arising out of an alliance of spears, and taken vengeance for the outrage by contrivance shrouded in night?

For never of your own heart alone, son of Telamon, would you have gone so far down the sinister path
as to fall upon the flocks. When the gods send madness, it cannot but reach its target, but may Zeus and Phoebus avert the evil rumor of the Greeks!
And if it is the great kings who slander you with their furtive stories,
185
or if it is he born of the abject line of Sisyphus, do not, my king, do not win me an evil name by keeping your face still hidden in the tent by the sea.

Come now, up from your seat, wherever you are settled in this long-lived pause from battle

For me, sorrow stands firmly planted.

Commentary
Commentary (Lewis Campbell, 1879) (OCR draft) (Commentary (Lewis Campbell, 1879)) focus
134-200. mvp-comment-100-1 The first part of the parodos consists of six anapaestic systems (ll. 134-171), during the recitation of which the Chorus pace to and fro in the orchestra, before the tent of Ajax. This long-continued movement, which betokens the restless anxiety of the mariners for their prince, also strikes a note in harmony with the feelings of the spectator, to whom the horror that is going on within has already been revealed. He knows that their dreadful apprehensions are only too true. It is followed by a strophe, antistrophe, and epode (ll. 172-200), which mark the climax of their agitation before the entrance of Tecmessa.
