ISMENE.
It falls, the royal house, it falls;
Ruin lords it o'er its walls;
And the furies howl around,
1070
Notes of shrill, foul-piercing sound.
Slaughter, reeking yet with gore,
Raises high each gate before,
Where they fought, and where they bled,
Trophies of the mighty dead;
1075
And, the rival chiefs subdued,
Ceases from her work of blood.
ANTIGONE.

They have their portion—each his lot and doom,
960
Given from the gods on high!
Yea, the piled wealth of fatherland, for tomb,
Shall underneath them lie!
Alas, alas! with flowers of fame and pride
Your home ye glorified;
965
But, in the end, the Furies gathered round
With chants of boding sound,
Shrieking,
In wild defeat and disarray,
Behold, ye pass away!
The sign of Ruin standeth at the gate,
970
There, where they strove with Fate—
And the ill power beheld the brothers' fall,
And triumphed over all!

Ihr Theil am Leid, welches Zeus verhängte, fiel,
905
Ach! den Unsel'gen zu:
Unter den Leichen hinab
Dehnt sich ihr Reich ohn' Ende.
Zweiter Halbchor.
O Graun! Zahllos mit Jammerblüten
Kränzten sie dieses Haus.
910
Zulegt erhoben noch die Flüche
Des Siegesrufs hellsten Laut,
Da ganz entlaubt niedersank der Heldenstamm.
Der Ate Siegzeichen steht am Thor erhöht,
An dem das Paar blutend sank;
915
Nach Beider Sturz wich der grause Dämon.
(Der eine Halbchor stellt sich nun auf die Seite der Antigone um Die Leiche des Polyneikes, während der andere sich zu Ismene um die Leiche des Eteokles stellt.)
Antigone.
