Leda En De Zwaan [Agamemnon] [English translation]

Suddenly a blow: wings still clap above.

The staggering girl, thighs turn black

Caressed by fleece1, beak around her neck

He holds her defenseless heart to his heart

How can those terrified fingers sweep

The feathery splendor away of her thigh that yield?

And how would flesh beneath this white flurry

Feel the place of the strange heartbeat

A trembling of the lower body instills a seed.

The wall in ruins, tower and tin full of smoke2

And Agamemnon dead

Picked up like that

So overruled by the brute blood of the air

She also obtained, through his strength, his knowledge

Before she could get rid of the inconsiderate beak

1. Like the webbing of a swan feet.2. Reference to Troy
