Pride goes before destruction, haughtiness precedes a fall Hybris against Gods begets grief and dole Sophrosyne is buried, awayin an unmarked tomb And Nemesis as a righteous judge pronounces the transgressor's doom
Sacrifice!
Excessive pride unrolls salutes controversy Kassiopeia rodomontades, insanity! Andromeda the maid the fairest of all Her beauty outdoes that of Mediterranean Nymphs
Chorus: A curse our eyes Kassiopeia: Andromeda's comeliness is surpassing that of Nereids Chorus: Irreverence and blasphemy Kassiopeia: Andromeda's comeliness is excelling the Nereids
The Nymphs' wrath unfolds backed by Poseidon Brings forth calamity on Aethiopian land She's pinioned to a rock, a meal for beast Ketos Her sacrifice the end of all, adversity
Chorus: Come! Come Perseus! Cease Andromeda's misfortune Chorus: A curse upon our eyes Chorus: Come! Come Perseus! Cease Andromeda's ill fortune!

Perseus on Pegasus The Danaan son of Zeus, who's slain Ketos
Whelmed by her beauty, her freedom his duty, he'll set her free at all cost These gyves will break sword's short outbreak, the beast attacks on, Perseus is lost Sea monster Ketos. The coming of Ketos!
The beast breasts the waves, all in torment and daze, but Io! Perseus stands up to the dragon Wi'his half moonlike blade he's storming the drake and sets its body to the sea ground He's reaping Ketos! He's reaping Ketos!
