Sol 5.6

  1. The faces of the graves became radiant,

    And the darkness of the graves turned to light,

  2. On the day he became the quarry of death,

    And through his loss we lost wealth and song;

  3. The day the earth enfolded the Pleiades,

    And we were left without radiance or eminence;

  4. The day ill-omened harbingers carried him away,

    And through his loss we were bereft of land and riches;

  5. The day death laid its breast upon him,

    And through his loss we were denied bounty and tender young;

  6. The day the petty assaults of the nights destroyed him,

    And through his loss we donned decay and affliction.
