God of pawing steeds, Poseidon,[n11]
Join thine aid to his above,
And with thy fish-piercing trident
Still our hearts, our fears remove.
Save us Ares! father Ares,
Father now thy children’s need!
Save us Cypris, mother of Thebans,[n12]
For we are thy blood indeed!
Save us, save us, Wolf-Apollo,[n13]
Be a wolf against the foe!
