And the sweet mint, because I had come

Living the heart at cold,
The mind couldn't find any room for peace.

It stirs the forest darkness, the darkness of his beard,

To see glad butterflies and smiling flowers.

overhead when rain and winter drive them over the flowing waters of
Oceanus to bring death and destruction on the Pygmies, and they

This was the promise of the days of old!

Only the swirl of the surges livid,
The seas that climb and the surfs that comb.

That with empounded cattle trod the mire,

And Saturn gain'd with Thea that sad place
Where Cybele and the bruised Titans mourn'd.

their shoulders drew close up to the walls. But stern fate bade Hector
