Dry as with sunshine that eternal glowed;

On either hand were spread

“The realms of life, lapt in a milder breath

Kindly to men; and next appear,

On this extreme and that, dull lands of death:

She made them dark and drear

“With year-long frost, and saddened all the hue

With endless winter; last she showed

What seats her sire’s grim brother holds; nor knew

The fated dark abode.”[58]
