Sappho (musingly)

Yet I too

Am frail, and I have fared on troubled seas!

Phaon

Bird-throated child of Lesbos, let us turn

To those dark hills of home and Long Ago

That one great love relumes, and one lost voice

Still like a fading lute with sorrow haunts.

Sappho

Dear hills of sun and gloom and green—soft hills
