O Kypris and Nereids, undamaged I pray you grant my brother to arrive here. And all that in his heart he wants to be, make it be. And all the wrongs he did before, loose it. Make him a joy to his friends, a pain to his enemies and let there exist for us not one single further sorrow. May he willingly give his sister her portion of honor, but sad pain [ always an astounding action ]grieving for the past [ breakneck, breath-taking ] [ calling, crying. Can't. A ] millet seed [ Disheartening downpour drenches. ] Once again no [ Enclosed eyes evident, ears extended ] [ Fatally flawed ] [ Groaning ground grows grey ]but you Kypris [ Hell-bent, heavy, hopelessly hurricaning ] setting aside evil [Insubordinately incoherent] [ Just jolly ]
