A goodly crop to you hath grown

Of woe and wailing;

Ye reaped the seed by Laius sown,

The god prevailing.

Shrill yelled the curse, a deathful shout,

And scattered sheer in hopeless rout

The kingly race did fall; and lo!

Fell Até planteth

Her trophy at the gate; and there

Triumphant o’er the princely pair
