Ye riſing hills that crown this ſhore,
125
Where Apis reign'd in years of yore,
Propitious hear me, nor diſdain
To let your echoes learn this ſtrain;
Barbaric tho' my voice and rude,
Well may its notes be underſtood;

Barbaric tho' this purfled ſtole h ,
Frounc'd around with linen roll,
This blushing veil tho' Sidon gave,
Ye hills of Apis hear, and ſave!

spezzato è il canto.
Ahimè! ahimè!
Acconcio, mentre pur viva sono,
io per me l'ululo di morte intono.
E invoco il suolo Apio

o terra, t'è cognita
la barbara mia querimonia
e avvento le mani, a distruggerla,
sovressa la veste sidonia.

O Apian land of hill and dale,
Thou kennest yet, O land, this faltered foreign wail—
135
Have mercy, hear my prayer!
Lo, how again, again, I rend and tear
My woven raiment, and from off my hair
Cast the Sidonian veil!

Und den Sidonerschleier.

erstes Epeisodion. 1. Szene (182—239): Danaos und der Koryphaios. Danaos kündigt das Nahen des Königs an und gibt seinen Töchtern Verhaltungsmaß- regeln. 2. Szene (240 - 349): Pelas- gos und die Vorigen. Die Danaiden erklären ihre Herkunft von Argos und erflehen als ungerecht Ver- folgte den Schutz des Argivischen Königs.

Chorikon (423-446), welches das Nachsinnen des Königs zu Gunsten der Da- naiden zu wenden sucht. 5. Dialog des Königs, des Koryphaios und des Danaos (447-532): Der König offenbart seinen Entschluß die Entscheidung dem Volke anheim- zugeben.
