Antistrophe III

Yet of all ills the Lemnian first may stand,

The cry of loathing rings through all the land,

And still each crime of dread

A man will liken to the Lemnian ill;

And now by woe that comes from God's stern will

The race is gone and fled,

Of all men scorned, for no man looks with love

On deeds that to the high Gods hateful prove;

Is not this clear to see?
