A
-
The thick golden stream of honey took so longB
To pour our host had time to sayC
'Here in the dismal Taurides where fate has brought usD
We don't get bored at all' and she looked over her shoulderE
-
-
-
-
The services of Bacchus everywhere as if on earthF
Were only guards and dogs You go along you notice no oneG
Like heavy barrels the peaceful days roll byH
Far off Voices in a hut you cannot understand nor replyH
-
-
-
-
After tea we went out in the huge brown gardenG
The dark blinds were lowered like eyelashesI
Past white columns we went to look at the grapesJ
Where the drowsy mountains are glazed with airy glassK
-
-
-
-
I said the vines live like an ancient battleL
Where curly headed horsemen fight in twisted orderE
The science of Hellas in the stony Tauride and hereM
There are the noble rusty rows of golden acresN
-
-
-
-
Silence stands in the room white as a spinning wheelO
From the cellar smells of paint vinegar fresh wineP
Remember in the Greek house the woman loved by everyoneG
Not Helen another how long she embroideredQ
-
-
-
-
Golden fleece where are you golden fleeceR
The sea's heavy waves roared the whole wayC
Abandoning the ship its canvas worn out on the seasS
Odysseus returned full of space and timeT
