Preface

Τ&ogvgr; &sbEacgr;αρ.
Πορφυρ&eacgr;η με&iacgr;δησε φερανθ&eacgr;ος &sbaacgr;νθεος &rbohacgr;ρη&colgr;
Γα&itigr;α δ&egvgr; κυαν&eacgr;η χλοερ&eegvgr;ν &sbegr;στ&eacgr;ψατο πο&iacgr;ην.κ.τ.λ.
[Here] smiles the purple spring's bloom-bearing time;
And swart earth does her glossy green hair trim;
Decks with fresh leaflets every bursting limb.
Here drink the pure and quickening dew of morn
The laughing meads; and the soft rose is born.
The shipmen, lithe, plough the wide-foaming seas,
Bellying their sails with frolic Zephyr's breeze.
And, aye, the brisk-tongued bird-race plies its song;
Kingfishers seaward; swallows, roofs among.
Meleagros, Idyll. To Spring.
