STROPHE II

Henceforth let no man in his anguish call,

When he sore-smitten by ill-chance shall fall,

Uttering with groan and moan,

“O mighty Justice, O Erinnyes' throne!”

So may a father or a mother wail,

Struck by new woe, and tell their sorrow's tale;

For low on earth doth lie

The home where Justice once her dwelling had on high.
