Go and get the doctor! Hurry, boy!”

But Bruce was on the low road, and the only

Ears that heard were scattered up the sky.

Artemis, on top of Silver Mountain,

Heard; and woke Athene; and the others,

Knowing it was time, went with them both

Like falling stars—all of them, like stars,

To drop and stand in darkness by the door

While Bruce’s mother, moaning, called and called:

“Where are you, boy? Hurry! Get the doctor!”
