+
+O friends, oh ever partners of my woes,
+Attend while I what Heaven foredooms disclose.
+Hear all! Fate hangs o'er all; on you it lies
+To live or perish! to be safe, be wise!
+
+'In flowery meads the sportive Sirens play,
+Touch the soft lyre, and tine the vocal lay;
+Me, me alone, with fetters firmly bound,
+The gods allow to hear the dangerous sound.
+Hear and obey; if freedom I demand,
+Be every fetter strain'd, be added band to band.
+
+While yet I speak the winged galley flies,
+And lo! the Siren shores like mists arise.
+Sunk were at once the winds; the air above,
+And waves below, at once forgot to move;
+Some demon calm'd the air and smooth'd the deep,
+Hush'd the loud winds, and charm'd the waves to sleep.
+Now every sail we furl, each oar we ply;
+Lash'd by the stroke, the frothy waters fly.
+The ductile wax with busy hands I mould,
+And cleft in fragments, and the fragments roll'd;
+The aerial region now grew warm with day,
+The wax dissolved beneath the burning ray;
+Then every ear I barr'd against the strain,
+And from access of frenzy lock'd the brain.
+Now round the masts my mates the fetters roll'd,
+And bound me limb by limb with fold on fold.
+Then bending to the stroke, the active train
+Plunge all at once their oars, and cleave the main
+
+While to the shore the rapid vessel flies,
+Our swift approach the Siren choir descries;
+Celestial music warbles from their tongue,
+And thus the sweet deluders tune the song:
+
+'Oh stay, O pride of Greece! Ulysses, stay!
+Oh cease thy course, and listen to our lay!
+Blest is the man ordain'd our voice to hear,
+The song instructs the soul, and charms the ear.
+Approach! thy soul shall into raptures rise!
+Approach! and learn new wisdom from the wise!
+We know whate'er the kings of mighty name
+Achieved at Ilion in the field of fame;
+Whate'er beneath the sun's bright journey lies.
+Oh stay, and learn new wisdom from the wise!'
+
+Thus the sweet charmers warbled o'er the main;
+My soul takes wing to meet the heavenly strain;
+I give the sign, and struggle to be free;
+Swift row my mates, and shoot along the sea;
+New chains they add, and rapid urge the way,
+Till, dying off, the distant sounds decay;
+hen scudding swiftly from the dangerous ground,
+The deafen'd ear unlock'd, the chains unbound.
