thou

Not wholly destitute. And thou shalt sail,

O Phrygia, first shalt thou flame from the crest

Thou shalt deny God himself, courting favor

Alas, alas, Laodicea! thou

Escaping from the mainland thou shalt swim;

Thus, O thou wretched one, shalt thou of war

Thus, O thou wretched one, shalt thou of war

And thou, O wretched Corinth, shalt receive

Tyre, thou, unhappy, shalt be left alone;

Of pious men, thou shalt be brought to naught.

O wretched one, thou didst not know thy God,

And thou shalt sacrifice to the immortal

And thou shalt sprinkle water on pure fire

Thou didst make thyself manifest in fire."

Thou shalt not shut thy door, when there shall come

Do thou thus cry: "I do not long for wealth;

A suppliant; Father, thou provider, hear."

When thou hast prayed thou shalt give unto him;

When thou hast prayed thou shalt give unto him;

Do thou, O Father, make my wretched heart

Sardinia, weighty now, thou shalt be changed

To ashes. Thou shalt be no more an isle,

Shall sailors seek thee when thou art no more,

Hard to get out of, ages shalt thou boast

Shall altogether bury; thou shalt give

And thou from peoples ever far away

With chill ice thou shalt for an outrage pay,

Which thou didst not perceive, unholy one.

Stout-hearted Rome, thou to Olympus shalt

When thou wouldst to the eye seem to remain

Perishing thou shalt then cry out and boil

Alas, alas for thee, thou wretched one;

Alas, alas thou evil-minded sea!

Thou shalt be wholly eaten up of fire

And people with thy brine shalt thou destroy.

And thou shalt be the first to bend thy neck

And then shalt thou be wholly desolate,

Whom thou didst worship, demons without life,

But when thou shalt have had voluptuous kings

And then shalt thou mourn and shalt put aside

Shall be for thee no longer, nor shalt thou,

Alas, alas for thee, thou reckless land,

Great barbarous nation; thou didst not perceive

Whence naked and unworthy thou didst come

Naked thou mightest withdraw and afterwards

Alone through all the world thou, shalt abide

And brimstone and much fire thou utterly

Nor other nation. Plundered thou shalt be

And made to suffer what thou didst exact,

And in fear wailing thou shalt give, until

Thou pay back all things; and thou for the world

Thou pay back all things; and thou for the world

And eight and forty shalt thou make complete,

I now by my hands, and thou by the Word

Know thou thy God himself, who is God's Son;

And know who this one is, and thou shalt then

Eternal thou shalt have and fadeless life

No longer henceforth shalt thou grieving say

Thou who art self-begotten, undefiled,

And the fire-blazing scourges thou dost blunt

Thou didst address: "Behold, let us make man

We will subject all things." And thou didst speak

Receive thou God." Thus speaking he inbreathed

That sends forth flame of altars; nor do thou,

Shall nourish; and his name know thou . . .

A hundred more, and thou a hundred nines

Shalt finish and all things shalt thou repay;

Shalt thou be given over as a slave,

Shall many evils do, till thou repay

All things which thou, possessed of shameless soul,

Thou Median nation; thou shalt afterwards

Thou Median nation; thou shalt afterwards

Beyond the land of Meroe; wretched thou

Shalt thou receive when that stronger-minded man

Thou shalt receive this, not perceiving it

How many things thou art obliged to wail!

Thou shalt the miserable refuse be

Thou shalt serve triumphs, who wast called a queen;

And then shalt thou send forth thy royal man

But do thou, fleeing, leave the former king,

But when thou shalt come to an end of time

Thou, wretched, shalt thyself flee from above

Shalt thou come to the dreadful man himself;

Shalt thou give, and thou shalt repay all things,

Shalt thou give, and thou shalt repay all things,

Which thou aforetime didst with masculine hands;

Thou shalt give the whole land by way of dower

To the resistless man. And thou shalt be

No more a widow, but thou shalt cohabit

A furious warrior. And then shalt thou be

For thou shalt leave possessed of shameless soul;

O very wealthy Egypt, thou shalt be

Thou shalt to peoples be a wretched slave

Piously living thou led'st to much woe

To wailing; and thou shalt make recompense

For what thou didst unlawfully of old,

And when thou shalt come forward to the books

Thou shalt not tremble, and all things to come

O thou of goodly fruit, he shall be full

Of man-destroying Ares; thou shalt pay
