    Chorus
    Singing.

    Io! io! forward to the attack, throw yourselves upon the foe, [345] spill his blood; take to your wings and surround them on all sides. Woe to them! let us get to work with our beaks, let us devour them. [350] Nothing can save them from our wrath, neither the mountain forests, nor the clouds that float in the sky, nor the foaming deep.
