FROM GREEK AND LATIN

 

On A Satyr and Sleeping Love*  

 

Me whom the purple mead that Bromius owns

And girdles rent of amorous girls did please,

Now the inspired and curious hand decrees

That waked quick life in these quiescent stones,

 To yield thee water pure. Thou lest the sleep

Yon perilous boy unchain, more softly creep.

 

* Plato
