From The Same (Pictures From Theocritus - From Idyl I.)

Category: Poetry
Where were ye, nymphs, when Daphnis drooped with love?
In fair Peneus' Tempe, or the grove
Of Pindus! Nor your pastimes did ye keep,
Where huge Anapus' torrent waters sweep;
On 'tna's height, ah! impotent to save,
Nor yet where Akis winds his holy wave!
