179 XVI. TO THE EVENING StAR. Hesper! * golden light of the lovely Foam -born ! Hesper, dear friend, sacred ornament of dark night, hail, thou friend, ^as much more faint than the moon, as thou art eminent above the stars ; and give thou me, as I go a merry-making to a shep- herd, light instead of the moon : because she, beginning her course to-day, went down too quickly. I am not going forth for theft, nor to molest a wayfarer in the night : but I am a lover ; and 'tis meet to return a lover l...ove for love. XVII. love resistless. Gentle Cyprus-born goddess, child of Jove and the sea, why art thou so wroth with mortals and immortals ? I have said but little ; rather, why dost thou so much hate them, and why, prythee, shouldest thou have given birth to Eros, so great a plague to all, cruel as he is, without natural aiFection, in mind nowise resembling his form ? And to what end hast thou given him to us ^winged and a far-darter, that we migLt not be able to escape him, bitter as he is. * Horn.
