WORK SAMPLE (SWE)

“Om ändå det storslagna skeppet Argo
aldrig korsat det mörkblåa havet och nått det fjärran Kolchis.
Om ändå tallarna i Greklands skogar aldrig fällts till åror
åt de modiga män som hämtade det gyllene skinnet,
ty då hade Medea aldrig nått Iolkos lysande torn,
förhäxad av sin kärlek till Jason.”

— Åklagaren
