Not from the chair her feet and hands are lifted "With quiet grace, but like a diver headlong She plunges to the knees, — so not unpunished, For rivalling fair Panope and Doris, Thus westward borne she floats. But the eastern heaven Rolls others up ; the Crown's remaining round,f * The Bears are here put for the Arctic Circle.

But this constellation, it is said, was not grouped ...till after the time of Hipparchus. With Voss, I follow Cicero and Avienus, the ancient translators. See page 54, lines 4 and 5, and the note on page 42, line 2.
60 THE APPEARANCES OP THE STARS.
The last of Hydra, with the Centaur's head And body, and the creature he holds grasped In his right hand. The Monster-Horseman waits, With his fore feet, the rising of the Bow.
