Le rapide Zéphire, et les fiers aquilons, / et les vents de l'Afrique, en naufrages féconds, / tous bouleversent l'onde, et des mers turbulentes / roulent les vastes flots sur leurs rives tremblantes. / On entend des nochers les tristes hurlements, / et des cables froissés les affreux sifflements.

- They press down upon the sea and stir it up from the lowest depths, East and South and Southwest winds as one, thick with tempests, they roll the vast waves to the shores. There follows the shouting of men and the shrieking of ropes.
- East, West and squally South-west, with a roar, / swoop down on Ocean, and the surf and sand / mix in dark eddies, and the watery floor / heave from its depths, and roll huge billows to the shore. / Then come the creak of cables and the cries / of seamen.

Les Strophades ( la Grèce ainsi nomma ces îles ) / aux nochers rassurés présentent leurs asiles ; / et, de loin dominant les flots ioniens, / sur leurs tranquilles bords appellent les Troyens. / Vain espoir ! Céléno, la reine des Harpies, / infecta ces beaux lieux de ses troupes impies, / depuis que Calaïs à leur brutale faim / du malheureux Phinée arracha le festin.

Saved from the sea, the Strophades we gain, / so called in Greece, where dwells, with Harpies, dire / Celaeno, in the vast Ionian main, / since, forced from Phineus' palace to retire, / they fled their former banquet.
