And she, leaving citizens shield-bearers, and the discomfiture of spears, and naval armaments, and bearing to Ilion destruction as her dowry, passed swiftly through the gates, having dared undarable deeds and much did the bards 5
of the house lament as they told this ditty. “Alas! alas! for the palace and the chiefs; alas! for the couch, and the footsteps of her who once loved her spouse 6
. He stands by silent, dishonored, uttering no reproach, not believing that he sees her eloped. And in yearning after her beyond the sea, a phantom will seem to rule the house, and the beauty of fair-formed statues is loathed by her husband, and in the unfed glance 1
of his eyes all their loveliness passes away.

To Greece ſhe left the ſhield, the ſpear,
The naval armament of war;
And, bold in ill, to Troy’s devoted ſhore
Deſtruction for her dowry bore.

Strofe II
460
Lasciando ai cittadini suoi per retaggio il turbine
degli scudi e dell'aste, e dei navigli l'impeto,
recando per sua dote ad Ilio lo sterminio,
audace oltre ogni audacia,
Elena a franco passo le porte valicò.
465
Molto, narrando il fatto, gl'indovini gemerono
della reggia : « Ahimè !, casa, ahimè !, casa, e voi, principi!
Ahi!, talamo, e vestigia de l'amor che passò!
Vedi l'obbrobrio muto,
nella doglia acutissima
470
in disparte seduto.
Un'ombra d'oltre il pelago,
bramata, i tetti regger sembrerà.
Delle statue la vista
bella, lo sposo attrista:
475
ché dove occhi non brillano
l'amore in bando va.

And she, unto her country and her kin
Leaving the clash of shields and spears and arming ships,
And bearing unto Troy destruction for a dower,
And overbold in sin,
Went fleetly thro' the gates, at midnight hour.
480
Oft from the prophets' lips
Moaned out the warning and the wail—Ah woe!
Woe for the home, the home! and for the chieftains, woe!
Woe for the bride-bed, warm
Yet from the lovely limbs, the impress of the form
485
Of her who loved her lord, awhile ago!
And woe! for him who stands
Shamed, silent, unreproachful, stretching hands
That finds her not, and sees, yet will not see,
That she is far away!
490
And his sad fancy, yearning o'er the sea,
Shall summon and recall
Her wraith, once more to queen it in his hall.
And sad with many memories,
The fair cold beauty of each sculptured face—
495
And all to hatefulness is turned their grace,
Seen blankly by forlorn and hungering eyes!

Sie ließ Mykens Volke kampfrüstiges
Gewühl, Schildesklang, Speergeklirr, Schiffervolk in Rüstung,
Bringt statt der Mitgift Ilion den Untergang;
385
So schritt sie flugs die Pforten durch,
Verwegnes wagend. Und es klagten laut
Des Hauses Wahrsager, also rufend :
O Haus, o Haus, wehe dir, weh, Fürsten, euch!
bräutlich Bett! Spuren alter Liebe, weh!
390
Da steht er stumm, der Entehrte, doch er schmäht sie nicht,
Und trauert, daß die Falsche floh.
Wohl scheint's, ersehnt, herrscht als Geist
Noch im Haus, die das Meer entführte.
Denn liebreizender Bilder
395
Anmuth ist ihm zuwider:
Nun ihr Blick ihm entschwunden, floh
Alle Lust Aphrodita's.
Zweite Gegenstrophe.

erstes Stasimon. Die rhythmischen Ephymnien, bestehend in der dreimaligen Wiederkehr des gleichen Versmafses am Schlusse der drei Strophen und Antistrophen, lassen vermuten, daſs die drei Strophenpaare von den drei στοίχοι des Chors, die Ephymnien von dem Gesamtchore vorgetragen wurden. Eine ähnliche Form hat das Segensgebet Suppl. 638 ff. Die sittlichen Erwägungen, welche der Fall Trojas in Bezug auf die Besiegten und die Sieger erweckt (zu 413), werden mit, dafs Zeus getroffen, darf man wohl sagen" das Vorhergehende angeschlossen. an

ἀθίκτων: Soph. Oed. T. 891 τῶν ἀθίκτων ἕξεται ματάζων. Das Heilige, das nicht angetastet werden darf, sind die sittlichen Grundsätze, die,,ungeschriebenen Gesetze" ( Soph. Ant. 454 ). γάνος, Schmuck (584) wie Cho. 634 θεοστυγήτῳ δ᾽ ἄγει βροτῶν ἀτιμωθὲν οἶχεται γάνος. Dieses steht zu πατοὶτο in scharfem Gegensatz: Der Schmuck, der in Ehren gehalten werden sollte, wird mit Füfsen getreten.
