I, wretched, have for a long time kept silence, utterly astounded by the evils: for this calamity is too great for me to speak, or to enquire about our sufferings. Nevertheless, it is necessary for mortals to endure afflictions, when the gods award them : and do thou compose thyself and tell us, unfolding the whole of our suffering, even though thou sigh est over the evils: who is there that hath not fallen? and whom of the leaders of the host shall we bewail, who, having been appointed to a sceptred office, by his death left his file desolate without their chief?

Artèmbare sbatté, di diecimila
335
cavalli duce, alle Silenie rupi:
e Dadàce, di mille, un salto a vuoto
spiccò dal bordo, d'una lancia all'urto.
Tenagone, che il primo era dei figli
di Battrïana, l'isola d'Aiace
340
flagellata dai flutti, abita.
Arsame,
Lilaio, e terzo, Argeste, intorno all'isola
di colombi nutrice, all'aspra cozzano
spiaggia coi comni, spenti.
345
Artèo, finitimo
del Nilo egizio ai fonti, Adève, e terzo
il clipeato Fàrnuco, piombarono
da un legno sol.
Criseo Matallo, capo
350
di trentamila cavalieri negri,
bagnò la rossa fitta ombrosa barba,
color mutando entro purpureo bagno.
L'arabo Mago, il battrio Artame, giacquero,
nuovi meteci, in quella terra dura.
355
Ed Amistri e Anfistrèo, che la terribile
lancia vibrava, e Arïomarde il buono
che lutto a Sardi ora procaccia, e Sísamo
misio, e Taribi che guidava navi
cinque volte cinquanta, e nacque a Lirna,
360
fulgido eroe, giace ora spento, misero,
ché non gli arrise la ventura.
E Sínnesi
re dei Cilici, il primo fra i magnanimi,
cruccio, ei da solo, agl'inimici, grande,
365
morte ebbe e gloria.
Io questi sol rammemoro
dei condottieri. Ma ben pochi sono
questi che annuncio, dei malanni molti.

Populi principum, qui ſub ſceptrifera potentia

Mute have I been awhile, and overwrought
At this great sorrow, for it passeth speech,
285
And passeth all desire to ask of it.
Yet if the gods send evils, men must bear.
( To the Messenger)
Unroll the record! stand composed and tell,
Although thy heart be groaning inwardly,
290
Who hath escaped, and, of our leaders, whom
Have we to weep? what chieftains in the van
Stood, sank, and died and left us leaderless?

Schon lange schweig' ich Arme, durch das schwere Leid
Betäubt: so ungeheuer ist das Mißgeschick,
Und drängt zurück die Rede, hemmt der Frage Lauf.
Doch muß der Mensch die Schmerzen, die der Götter Rath
275
Verhängt, ertragen. Ganz enthülle, denn das Leid,
Und ob das Herz auch seufze, dennoch sprich gefaßt:
Wer blieb am Leben? Welchen Fürsten müssen wir
Betrauern? Wer mit hohem Feldherrnstabe fiel,
Und ließ die führerlose Schaar verwaist zurück?
