The thick golden stream of honey took so long | B |
To pour our host had time to say | C |
'Here in the dismal Taurides where fate has brought us | D |
We don't get bored at all' and she looked over her shoulder | E |

The services of Bacchus everywhere as if on earth | F |
Were only guards and dogs You go along you notice no one | G |
Like heavy barrels the peaceful days roll by | H |
Far off Voices in a hut you cannot understand nor reply | H |

After tea we went out in the huge brown garden | G |
The dark blinds were lowered like eyelashes | I |
Past white columns we went to look at the grapes | J |
Where the drowsy mountains are glazed with airy glass | K |

I said the vines live like an ancient battle | L |
Where curly headed horsemen fight in twisted order | E |
The science of Hellas in the stony Tauride and here | M |
There are the noble rusty rows of golden acres | N |

Silence stands in the room white as a spinning wheel | O |
From the cellar smells of paint vinegar fresh wine | P |
Remember in the Greek house the woman loved by everyone | G |
Not Helen another how long she embroidered | Q |

Golden fleece where are you golden fleece | R |
The sea's heavy waves roared the whole way | C |
Abandoning the ship its canvas worn out on the seas | S |
Odysseus returned full of space and time | T |
