Triste estaba
Language: Spanish (Español)
Triste estaba muy quejosa la triste reina troyana en ver a sus hijos muertos y la ciudad asolada, y la linda Polixena en el templo degollada, sobre el sepulcro de Aquiles por Pirrus sacrificada. Oh! traidor! ¿Cómo pudiste en mujer vengar tu saña; no bastó su hermosura contra tu cruel espada?
