Thus Venus look'd, when from the waveless sea She rose ; (her rising Nature smiled to see, ) Loosely enrobed, and brighter than the morn On car of young Hyperion upborn ; Fresh as the rose, her limbs impearl'd with spray, In floating shell the Queen of Rapture lay ; Admiring Mermaids throng'd to grace her train, The Syrens sang, and Nereids skimm'd the main.

FOURTH EPISTLE. 45 Diogenus Laertius describes Xenophon as fond of the sports of the field.
