Страница 258 - A thousand bulls be offered to the sun, White as his beams ; speak the big voice of war ; Beat all our drums, and sound our silver trumpets ; Provoke the gods to follow our example In bowls of nectar, and replying thunder.
Страница 252 - Tis not in nature to support such joy. Stat. Go, my best love; unbend you at the banquet; Indulge in joy, and laugh your cares away ; While, in the bowers of great Semiramis, I dress your bed with all the sweets of nature, And crown it as the altar of our loves, Where I will lay me down, and softly mourn, But never close my eyes till you return.
