Falls in her flight, and languishes, and dies.

Another on her sister drops in death;

A fifth in trembling terrors yields her breath;

While the sixth seeks some gloomy cave in vain,

Struck with the rest, and mingled with the slain.

One only daughter lives, and she the least;

The queen close clasp'd the daughter to her breast:

"Ye heav'nly pow'rs, ah spare me one," she cry'd,
