That thou art guiltless of this murder, who will testify? How? how? yet the evil genius of his fathers might abet thee. And the wretched battle-god is hurried violently onward in torrents of kindred blood; making his way where he must give course to the clotted gore of children slam for food 1

That thou art guiltleſs of this blood, what proof,
What witneſs?
— From the father, in his cauſe,
Riſe an avenger! Stain’d with the dark ſtreams
Of kindred blood fierce waves the bick’ring ſword,
1690
And points the ruthleſs boy to deeds of horror.—
My king, my royal lord, what words can ſhow
My grief, my reverence for thy princely virtues!
Art thou thus fall’n, caught in a cobweb ſnare,
By impious murder breathing out thy life?
1695
Art thou thus fall’n, Ah the diſloyal bed!
Secretly ſlaughter’d by a treach’rous hand?

Chi mai potrebbe far testimonio
che tu sei monda di questo scempio ?
Come? Come? Oh! Ma vindice

verrà del padre il Dèmone!
E nei rivi di strage consanguinea,
Marte livido infuria,
dove compenso vindice ai vermigli
grumi offrirà dei divorati figli.

Thou guiltless of this murder, thou!
1755
Who dares such thought avow?
Yet it may be, wroth for the parent's deed,
The fiend hath holpen thee to slay the son.
Dark Ares, god of death, is pressing on
Thro' streams of blood by kindred shed,
1760
Exacting the accompt for children dead,
For clotted blood, for flesh on which their sire did feed.

Daß du den blutigen Mord
Nimmer verschuldetest, wer bezeugt das?
Wer? Aber der Ahnen Fluchgeist
Stand wohl helfend zur Seite.
In Strömen stammverwandten Bluts
1460
Rast ewig fort der dunkle Mord,
Und negt sich neu, wohin er auch sich wälze,
Im Thau blutigen Kindermordes.
