DIDON Adieu, fière cité, qu'un généreux effort Si promptement éleva florissante; Ma tendre sœur qui me suivis errante, Adieu, mon peuple, adieu; adieu, rivage vénéré, Toi qui jadis m'accueillis suppliante; Adieu, beau ciel d'Afrique, astres que j'admirai Aux nuits d'ivresse et d'extase infinie; Je ne vous verrai plus, ma carrière est finie!... Elle sort à pas lents.
