SAPPHO
(Lobel-Page 99 – Σαπφώ – English translation)
] among the palm branches [
] child of Polyanax [
] the Sameans [
Upon the strings to pluck in
Glissandos, welcoming the seat-filling
By these ones: so fond of the sound
Of a lyre that trills gently,
Good-sounding, that through the bone –
Down the marrow, then – thence and inwards it runs.
