Publisher's Synopsis
Excerpt from Odes of Anacreon, Vol. 2: Translated Into English Verse, With Notes
From him that dream of transport ?ows, Which sweet intoxication knows; With him, the brow forgets to darkle, And brilliant graces learn to sparkle. Behold! My boys a goblet bear, Whose sunny foam bedews the air. Where are now the tear, the sight To the winds they ?y, they ?y! Grasp the bowl; in nectar sinking, Man of sorrow drown thy thinking! Oh! Can the tears we lend to thought In life's account avail us aught!
