Still what a royal posture he retains!

That is Jason, who by his heart and cunning

Took the ram of Colchians.

He passed by the isle of Lemnos

After the daring and pitiless women

Had all of their males put to death.

There with his gifts and with ornate words

He deceived Hypsipyle, the maiden

Who first, herself, had deceived all the rest.

There he left her pregnant and forlorn;

Such sin is why this punishment condemns him,

And also for Medea the vengeance is done.

Those who are with him also deceived in the same way;

And this is sufficient to fill the first valley,

And those are the ones it holds in its jaws."
