Sweet Mnemosyne!
You who glides on wings of silk,
Whose altars are never bereft;
Beloved goddess--I am in awe of you,
*
Aphrodite, golden queen of the
Most cherished of emotions--
Love, grown between warm hearts,
In the soft breaths of a summer's night.
*
Dainty Hebe, daughter of the most regal queen;
Rabbits trail about your feet, birds sing at your ear.
Flowers are strewn over the earth touched by you;
For all love you, sweet-scented goddess.
Even in this day, this harsh world, you--
Youth with the cup of immortality--are cherished.
