Xerxes: No: they are bold and daring: these sad eyes
Beheld their violent and deathful deeds.

Chorus: The ruin, sayst thou, of thy shattered fleet?

Xerxes: And in the anguish of my soul I rent
My royal robes.

Chorus: Wo, wo!

Xerxes: And more than wo.

Chorus: Redoubled, threefold wo!

Xerxes: Disgrace to me,
But triumph to the foe.

Chorus: Are all thy powers
In ruin crush'd?
