To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
With the Gods' cupbearer behold how they \ving unto Zeus their flight ! Oh the crimson coverlets strown o'er the couches, softer than sleep ! — As Miletus herself will own, and the tenders of Samian sheep. Lo, a second couch yonder whereon Adonis the fair shall repose — For Cypris one, and one for Adonis with arms like a rose.
66 THEOCRITUS.
Years eighteen, perchance nineteen, that sweet boy-bridegroom hath told : Soft are his kisses, I ween ; on his Hps is the down's pale gold. 130 Good night ...unto Cypris our Queen, and the lover her arms enfold ! But to-morn will we go forth all, while ghstens the dew on the land. And will bear him to where waves fall with gentle plash on the strand ; And we, with unbraided hair, vests dropped to our ankles, reveahng To the sun bright bosoms bare, will upraise this chant clear-pealing : — ' ' BelovM Adonis, alone of the Demigods, as they tell. Dost thou visit both Acheron and earth. Such fortune befell Nor Atreides, nor Aias, by whom death stood when with rage he was torn, Nor Hector, of Hecuba's womb the eldest of twice ten born.
