Antistrophe II

And yet another must I in my song

Devote to hate and scorn,

The murderess Skylla, who to deeds of wrong

By Minos' gifts was borne,

And for her foes' sake slew a man she loved

For Cretan chains gold-wrought;

She with dog's heart the deathless lock removed

From him, in deep sleep sunk; yet Hermes' power

She too was taught at last at her appointed hour.
