Original Text:
MÉNÉLAS VAINQUEUR.
Sur les remparts fumants de la superbe Troie,
Ménélas, fils des Dieux, comme une riche proie,
Ravit sa blonde Hélène et l'emmène à sa cour
Plus belle que jamais de pudeur et d'amour.

ILLIADE (Traduction Bareste).

Translation:
THE CONQUEROR MENELAUS.
On the smoking ramparts of vainglorious Troy,
Menelaus, a son of the gods, carried off with joy
A rich prize, his blond Helen: took her to his place
More beautiful than ever with bashfulness and grace.
