The Persians. (OCR draft) Experimental (The Persians.. Theodore Alois Buckley, 1849.) — 962 focus
I left them fallen in death out of a Tyrian ship on the shores of Salamis, striking on the rugged headland.
Alas for me! after having beheld ancient Athens the hateful, all in one shock of fight, ah! ah! ah! wretched, lie gasping on the ground.
Thou dost in sooth call to my mind a lament for my excellent friends, while thou speakest of baleful, hateful, exceeding hateful horrors. My heart within me moans aloud, moans aloud for them unhappy.
For they that were commanders of the host are gone.

Las ! hélas ! crie et achève d'apprendre 1 . Où
donc est ce qui reste de la multitude des tiens ? Où sont tes lieutenants, Pharandakès, Sousas, Pélagôn, Dotamas et Agda-
batas, Psammis, Sousiskanès, qui naguère quittait Ecbatane 2 ?
où est ton Pharnoukos ? et le preux Ariomardos ? Où donc sire Seuakès ? Lilaios aux
nobles aïeux, Memphis, Tharybis ? Et Masistras, Artembarès, Hystaichmas ? Réponds à mes demandes.
fidèle, Alpistos 5 , ... fils de Batanôkos, fils de Sésamas ? Et Parthos, et le grand Oïbarès ? Tu les as
donc laissés, laissés ? Ah ! ah ! misères ! pour les Perses altiers douleurs plus que douloureuses !
qui guidait dix mille cavaliers Mardes 6 , Xanthis ; et le valeureux Ankharès ; et Diaïxis, et Arsamès, à la tête de leurs cavaliers ! Et Dadakès, et Lythimnès, et Tolmos
l'insatiable lanceur de javelines, je m'étonne, je m'étonne de ne pas les voir derrière ton char à baldaquin 7 !

Daſh'd from the Tyrian veſſel on the rocks
1170
Of Salamis they ſunk, and ſmear'd with gore
The heroes on the dreary ſtrand are ſtretch'd.
Wretch that I am!
Theſe on th' abhorred town
Ogygian Athens d
, roll'd their glowing eyes
Indignant;
THE PERSIANS.
Indignant;
1185
but at once in the fierce ſhock
Of battle fell, daſh'd breathleſs on the ground.
To my griev'd memory thy mournful voice,
Tuned to the ſaddeſt notes of woe, recals
My brave friends loſt; and my rent heart returns
In dreadful ſymphony the ſorrowing ſtrain.
1205
O woe, woe, woe! Unutterable woe
The Dæmons of Revenge have ſpread;
And Ate from her drear abode below
1225
Riſes to view the horrid deed.

Quando io li lasciai, giú da un tirio
navile piombavano.
1095
Erravano verso le spiagge
Salamine dispersi: i cadaveri
sbatteano alle rupi selvagge.
Ahimè, ahi!, procombettero
tutti ad un colpo. A la vetusta Atene
odïosa, le palpebre
fisse, ahi miseri! guizzan su le arene.
Ahimè! Ché tu dei validi
compagni in me rinnovi ora il desio.
1120
Mali estremi tu parli, infami, orribili.
Grida, grida pei miseri il cuor mio.
Cadder quei che guidavano gli eserciti.

Miferos reliqui, Tyria
Ex naui pereuntes in littoribus Satamincis.
Heu beu antiquas uidentes
Molestas Athenas, omnes uno tumultu
880
Heuheu, miferi eunt in terram.
Voluptate uidelicet bonorū fociorŭ in memoria reducis,
Intollerabilia odiofaq; mala dicēs.
Clamat clamat miferorum intra cor.

Afcenderunt prefecti exercitus,
Afcenderunt ignobiles.

I left them, mangled castaways,
Flung from their Tyrian deck, and tossed
975
On Salaminian water-ways,
From surging tides to rocky coast!
Alas, alas, they came, their eyes surveyed
Ancestral Athens on that fatal day.
Then with a rending struggle were they laid
Upon the land, and gasped their life away!
Bitter indeed the pang for comrades slain,
1000
The brave and bold! thou strikest to my soul
Pain, pain beyond forgetting, hateful pain.
My inner spirit sobs and sighs with dole!
Yea, gone are they who mustered once the host!

Todt ließ ich sie dort, sah
Aus dem tyrischen Schiffe
910
Sie stürzen am Strande
Von Salamis, sah sie zerschellt
An der zackigen Klippe.
Nach dem grauen Athen, dem verhaßten,
Den Blick gewendet, niedergeschmettert zumal,
Die Armen, ach!
Liegen sie zuckend am Ufer alle.
925
Sehnsucht nach den tapferen Freunden,
Dein Wort erweckt mir Leid, unermeßliches Leid.
Es stöhnt, es stöhnt
Ueber dem Jammer das Herz im Busen.
Sie sind dahin, ach, des Heeres erster Schmuck!
Sie sind dahin, namenlos!
950
O Graun, o Graun! O Leid, o Leid!
