Fate shall with force lay low.

Only take heed lest any wrath of Gods

Blunt the great curb of Troïa yet encamped,

Struck down before its time;

For Artemis the chaste that house doth hate,

Her father's wingèd hounds,

Who slay the mother with her unborn young,

And loathes the eagles' feast.

Wail as for Linos, wail, wail bitterly;
