    offspring of Earth and Heaven

    11 TO CERTAIN SEEMING-FORTUNATE WOMEN

    But to me

    The Muses gave true wealth, and when I die

    I shall not be forgot.

    I want to learn it and die.’

    and for me brightness and beauty belong to the desire of the sunlight
  • gerdhas quoted6 years ago
    For when I look on you,
    Then methinks Hermionè
    Was never such as you to see,
    And I can say with better grace
    That Helen’s likeness is in your face
    Than any maiden’s of mortal race;
    Nay, I’d set you higher,
    And to your beauty’s altar bring
    All my mind’s thought for offering
    And all my heart’s desire.
  • gerdhas quoted6 years ago
    remembered be by one
    Whose sweet footfall I’d rather hear,
    Whose beaming smile I’d rather see,
    Than all the Lydian chariotry
    And mighty men of war.
