him that hath incurred the detestation of all the gods who frequent the court of Jupiter, by reason of my excessive friendliness to mortals. Alas! alas! what can this hasty motion of birds be which I again hear hard by me? The air too is whistling faintly with the whirrings of pinions. Every thing that approaches is to me an object of dread.

de Zeus, pour avoir trop aimé les hommes ! Ah ! ah ! encore ! Quel bruissement d'oiseaux entends-je près de moi ? A un batte-

Steals on my ſenſe? Be you immortal gods,
Or mortal men, or of th' heroic race,
Whoe'er have reach'd this wild rock's extreme cliff,
125
Spectators of my woes, or what your purpoſe,
Ye ſee me bound, a wretched god, abhor'd
By Jove, and ev'ry god that treads his courts,
For my fond love to man.
Ah me! again
130
I hear the ſound of flutt'ring nigh; the air
Pants to the ſoft beat of lightmoving wings:
All, that approaches now, is dreadful to me.

Giunge alcuno a veder le mie torture?
O per qual brama? Ahi!, di catene avvinto,
questo misero Nume vedete,
il nemico di Giove, che in odio
140
venne a quanti Celesti s'addensano
nella reggia di Zeus, perché gli uomini
troppo amavo.

IO
What boots it then to live? Why not with speed
Hurl myself headlong from this rugged cliff,
That, dashed upon the ground, I from my woes
Respite may find? Better to die at once
Than all my days to linger out in pain.

Heinous to Zeus, and scorned by all
Whose footsteps tread the heavenly hall,
Because too deeply, from on high,
135
I pitied man's mortality!
Hark, and again! that fluttering sound
Of wings that whirr and circle round,
And their light rustle thrills the air—
How all things that unseen draw near
140
Are to me Fear!
[ Enter the Chorus of Oceanides, in winged cars.

Mich, Zeus' Urfeind, der allen ein Gräul,
Den Unsterblichen, ward, soviel' im Olymp
120
Eingeh'n in Kronions Herrscherpalast,
Weil über Gebühr ich die Menschen geliebt!
Weh!
Welch Rauschen vernahm, wie von Vögeln, mir nah
Schon wieder mein Ohr? Lind flüstert die Luft
Von der Fittige leicht hinsäuselndem Schwung.
125
Was naht, mir weckt es ein Grausen.
(Von der Meerseite her schweben auf einem Flügelwagen die Töchter des Okeanos vor den Felsen des Prometheus, und singen in abwech selndem Chorliede.) Erste Strophe.
