Über dem Opfer, da sprech' ich den Spruch:
Sinnesbethörung,

Seelenqual.
Das ist der Rächenden Zaubergesang,
fesselt die Seele
ohne der Laute Schall,
dörret dem Menschen das Mark im Gebein. ..

But over the victim [be this the] song, fraught with madness, distracting, mind-destroying, the hymn of the Furies, that charms minds, without the lyre, that causes shrivelling to mortals.

E'en there not free; my chaſt'ning pow'r
Purſues him to that dreary shore.
O'er my victim raiſe the ſtrain,
And let the diſmal ſound
His tortur'd boſom wound,
385
And to frenzy fire his brain.
Silent be the ſilver ſhell,
Whilſt we chaunt the potent ſpell;
Then yelling bid th' infernal deſcant roll,
To harrow up his ſoul.

Sense and will confounding!

Soul in madness pining,
Wasting as with fire!
