1. “Come my
daughter, loud thundering, bids you.
Come once
again to the halls where you shall have honor.
Where you
will have your daughter to comfort away your sorrow.
As each year
is accomplished as bitter winter is ended.
For a third
part only his kingdom shall hold her.
For the
rest, you will keep her, you and the happy immortals.
Peace now,
give men life which comes alone from your giving.
She shall
return.”
Hamilton, Edith. Mythology: Timless Tales of Gods and
Hereos. Penguine. Puclisher.
2. ‘”Love,
could I see you lean to kiss
Your laughting
double in the glassy stream.”
Terrance, Georgiana. Cmplete Works of Oscar Wild. “La
Belle Gabrielle.” Seneca Publishing. Co.
