TO A SWALLOW BUILDING ON A STATUE OF MEDEA.
Build not, fond swallow, on that breast of stone ; Will she preserve thy brood who slew her own ?
I. XX I.
THE OFFERING OF LAIS.
Venus, from Lais, once as fair as thou, Receive this mirror, useless to me now ; For what despoiling Time hath made of me I will not, what he marred I cannot, see.
38 POEMS FROM THE GREEK ANTHOLOGY.
LXXII. THE OFFERING TO LAIS.
These withered readings of brow- wreathing rose ; These shattered cups, where no more foams and fl...ows Wine's strength ; this tress of myrrh-anointed hair ; Lais, from Anaxagoras' despair Take, laid in dust before thee, emblems fit Of his desire, and what he had from it. For, at thy gate with friends much revelling, No word, no look, no promise could he wring From thee, and with a curse doth now depart, Leaving these spoils of broken health and heart.
LXXIII.
A ninefold scroll of amorous poesy, Agathias, Venus, consecrates to thee.
The Muses blest, but Love inspired his strains, Therefore do thou accept them.
