Excerpt from Perseus: With the Hesperides It was a soothing place: the summer hours Pass'd there in quiet beauty, and at night The moon ran searching through the woodbine bowers, And shook o'er all the leaves her kisses bright, O'er lemon blossoms and faint myrtle flowers, And there the west wind often took his flight When heaven's clear eye was closing, while above Pale Hesper rose, the evening light of love. Barry Cornwall. Dai ihr noch die schöne Welt regieret, An der Freude leichtem Gangelbeand Selige Geschlechter noch gefùhret, Schone Wesen aus dem Fabel-land! Ach, da euer Wonnedienst noch glänzte, Wie ganz anders, anders war es da! Da man deine Tempel noch bekränzte, Venus Amathusia! Da der Dichtung zauberische Hülle Sich noch lieblich hum die Wahrheit wand - Durch die Scöhpfung floss da Lebensfülle Und was nie empfinden wird, empfand. An der Liebe Busen sie zu drücken Gab man höhern Adel der Natur, Alles wies den eingeweihten Blicken, Alles eines Gottes Spur. Schiller. Die Götter Griechenlands.
